Five non-QB position battles to watch in the ACC: UNC wide receiver

Posted Mar 22, 2017
What ESPN said: Austin Proehl should fit nicely in the slot, and while expecting him to replicate Ryan Switzer’s production is a lot to ask, he’s at least a known commodity.

The best bet might be Jordan Cunningham, a one-time recruiting star who transferred from Vanderbilt in 2015. (Carolina Blue)
