Game planning on Christmas gives way to redistribution process for UNC’s Phil Longo

Posted Dec 29, 2020
UNC offensive coordinator Phil Longo spent Christmas afternoon coming up with a game plan for the Orange Bowl against Texas A&M. The morning gave him some nice holiday memories but the work he did in the afternoon had a short shelf life. The next day, he threw out a lot of that work when he found out running back Javonte Williams had opted out. (Tar Heel Tribune)
