UNC relying on backfield depth
Posted Nov 17, 2014
Depth at running back was supposed to be a strength for UNC this season, and it certainly has been put to the test. The Tar Heels face a short week to get ready for Duke on Thursday and are down to sophomores T.J. Logan and Charles Brunson, a walk-on, in the backfield. UNC lost former Hillside running back Khris Francis for the rest of the season on Saturday against Pittsburgh.
