Posted Aug 10, 2006

Senior defensive end Melik Brown is cherishing his role in helping make the Tar Heels better. “Melik Brown can be a vocal leader if he continues to demonstrate by action,” John Bunting said. “It’s hard to demonstrate leadership by voice only, you have to have action. I’m really hoping Melik has a tremendous camp here. He’s off to a good start.” (Inside Carolina)
