UNC football has a defense loaded with 4- and 5-star recruits. Why is it struggling?
Posted Sep 7, 2022
Among the 27 players on UNC football's defensive depth chart, 13 were rated four- or five-star recruits coming out of high school, and seven were ranked among the nation's top 10 at their positions. With that kind of talent, how did the Tar Heels give up 61 points, including 40 in the final quarter, and more than 600 total yards against the Mountaineers?
