Elijah Hood could be big for Tar Heels' backfield
Posted Aug 28, 2014
Being on the wrong side of a blow from UNC freshman running back Elijah Hood is not a pleasant experience. “Hood is like a bull in a china closet,” Larry Fedora said. “He’s 225 pounds, he’s got great speed and he likes to run into things. When he breaks through, he’s not looking to avoid contact. He’s looking for something to run into — our team, their team, it doesn’t matter. He just wants something to hit.”
