Michael Carter, Jordon Brown work to fill void in UNC’s backfield
Posted Sep 13, 2017

Hood and Logan were standouts over the last four seasons of football in Chapel Hill; it’s not easy replacing two NFL-caliber running backs. However, UNC has a new duo that’s pretty good, too: Michael Carter and Jordon Brown.
