Posted Jul 30, 2017
Austin Proehl is trying to become the top dog in UNC’s receiver corps. The 5-10, 175-pounder is the lone returning starter among Tar Heel receivers. Following Mack Hollins’ collarbone injury midway through last season, Proehl became a regular on the first team, finishing the year with seven starts. He hauled in 43 receptions for 597 yards and three scores. (FanRag Sports)
