Jordon Brown leads UNC's young running back corps

Posted Aug 30, 2017
Jordon Brown is no slouch. Listed at 5-foot-10 and 195 pounds, he is an every-down back with the speed to get around the edge and the natural lean needed to push for extra yards. Larry Fedora decided not to redshirt Brown during his first year at UNC, and that could turn out to be a fruitful decision. “I see myself as a leader for the running back group,” Brown said.
