Heels defense won't rest
Posted Sep 2, 2006
The numbers don't faze Shelton Bynum. The UNC senior defensive tackle knows the Tar Heels defense can't improve as dramatically as it did in 2005, when it jumped from 109th in the country in total defense to 42nd. There aren't another 67 spots to move up, but the Tar Heels insist they can be better on defense this season, despite training camp injuries and key personnel losses.
