Turner's Take: Carolina Blue

Posted Dec 17, 2013
A.J. Blue turned 24 in August. That’s older than a typical college football player, but perhaps too young to have experienced everything that A.J. Blue has experienced. There have been highs and lows. The murder of a brother. The birth of a son. A year at a military academy. A devastating knee injury. An NCAA investigation. Two coaching changes. Graduation. Blue has been through it all. (GoHeels.com)
