UNC receivers at full strength for ECU

Posted Sep 16, 2014
Heading into their game against ECU, the UNC wide receivers feel positioned for their best performance of the season. For the first time this season, the UNC receivers are at full strength and are ready to live up to the ‘freaks’ persona they’ve adopted under the tutoring of wide receivers coach Gunter Brewer. (THT Note: "FREAKS" was originally coined by UNC WR Steven Jerry in 1991, the same year the DBs named themselves the "Rude Boyz".) (Carolina Blue)
