Who will emerge as UNC’s top running back?
Posted Jul 29, 2017
Training camp opens for North Carolina with no clear-cut successor to Elijah Hood and T.J. Logan. The Tar Heels welcome back sophomore Jordon Brown as the only experienced running back in UNC’s system. Brown, along with a transfer Stanton Truitt and a true freshman, will platoon until a leader emerges. Truitt averaged six yards a carry last season at Auburn.
