Mitch Trubisky ready to lead North Carolina
Posted Aug 8, 2016
Mitch Trubisky has waited three years for this opportunity. He sat and watched starting quarterback Marquise Williams rack up records, but now the redshirt junior finally gets a chance to lead the Tar Heels. "I’m excited. I'm trying to lead the troops and it starts with day one. Show the guys that I am the number one guy and can lead," Trubisky said at preseason camp.
