UNC's Elijah Hood Aiming Higher

Posted Apr 9, 2016
Despite earning second-team All ACC honors and rushing for 1,463 yards in 2015, junior running back Elijah Hood is still looking for more. “I don’t want to do it again, I want to do better,” Hood said after practice on Thursday. “You did this much this year, you work a little bit harder, you do an extra rep, study a little bit more film, how far can you go?” (Inside Carolina)
