Carolina running backs show promise

Posted Apr 16, 2007

No single running back seized the starting job this spring for North Carolina, but what became evident in Saturday's spring game is the Tar Heels' have a fine collection of talent at that position. What's even more impressive is one can say that without having seen Johnny White do much because he was limited with a sprained ankle. The coaching staff and others who have been able to watch practice said that White's speed is an obvious asset. (Carolina Blue)
