UNC’s defense to tackle more, QB to run less

Posted Jul 20, 2015
When this season gets going, if Marquise Williams is not UNC’s leading rusher, then it means things actually are headed in the right direction. “Take less hits. I ain’t about trying to be flashy no more,” Williams said. “Take some pressure off me. It’s not about me. It’s about Elijah Hood and all the rest of those guys. I’m just here to distribute the ball to those guys.” (Durham Herald-Sun)
