The email popped into my in-box on March 5, a note from long-time UNC football equipment and business manager Dominic Morelli with a link to The New York Times story on Ryan Hoffman. It was sent to Don McCauley of the Rams Club and to me, asking if we knew Hoffman, the mid-1990s offensive lineman who’d fallen on hard times, and if there was anything the Football Lettermen’s Association could do to rally around Hoffman.
