Defense Will Lead For UNC

Posted Jul 30, 2009
Defense is going to have to lead the way for North Carolina this season in football. The kids on that side of the ball are the ones with the most experience, and there is plenty of talent as well. For one thing, there is more speed on defense than perhaps at any time since Mack Brown was the Tar Heels' head coach. "We focus more on our speed," senior defensive end E.J. Wilson said.
