Catching up with UNC running back Michael Carter

Posted Aug 1, 2018
Don’t get Michael Carter wrong. He’s honored to be on the Doak Walker Award Watch List. But the list of 62 college football stars in contention for best running back in the nation is just that. A list. “The recognition was cool, but it’s not enough for me,” Carter said. “I need the award. That’s my mindset.” Carter probably isn’t the player you want to bet against. (Navarre Press)
