High Hopes for '08 UNC Football

Posted Jul 30, 2008

UNC junior wide receiver Hakeem Nicks said that he knows a lot is expected from the Tar Heels, but he said no one is expecting more than the players and the coaches. "ACC champs, national championship, we want to win it all," Nicks said. "Anybody can win on any Saturday. All you have to do is prepare right, no matter who you are. You go out there and prepare right, you can go out there and perform right." (Tar Heel Daily)
