WR Bug Howard looks to shed basketball stereotype
Posted Aug 28, 2015
At 6-foot-5 with a wide wingspan and hands almost the size of a football, people easily envision Bug Howard on the hardwood as opposed to the gridiron. But after gaining some weight this past offseason, he looks to prove football suits him best. When Howard arrived at UNC as a freshman in 2013, he weighed only 195 pounds. But what the lanky receiver lacked in girth, he made up for in athleticism.
