Lucas: Missing Larry Edwards

Posted Nov 13, 2006

I'm going to miss Larry Edwards. There, I said it. I fully realize this means I can no longer claim to be a "professional journalist." I am heartbroken at this turn of events. Granted, it's a little strange to claim to miss any part of a 2006 defense that has caused significant stress to every Tar Heel within a Chris Keldorf bomb of Kenan Stadium on multiple fall Saturdays. It's a defense that's been alternately spectacular and sieve-like. (Tar Heel Blue)
