Sideline situation changes for UNC
Posted Oct 8, 2006
John Bunting said linebackers Larry Edwards and Durell Mapp played their best games of the season Saturday during the Tar Heels' 27-7 loss at Miami. One possible reason: Their position coach was closer to them. Linebackers coach Tommy Thigpen moved to the sideline late in UNC's loss at Clemson two weeks ago -- and stayed there Saturday when defensive coordinator Marvin Sanders moved upstairs to the coaching box.
