After a year on the job, Jonathan Cooper’s got right idea

Posted Dec 18, 2009
Johnny White caught an image out of the corner of his eye as he began sprinting toward the end zone in the first half of UNC’s regular-season finale against N.C. State. It was only when he took a glance over his shoulder that he realized the player running stride-for-stride with him was a teammate. And not just any teammate. White’s escort on the 40-yard touchdown run was 6-foot-3, 295-pound offensive guard Jonathan Cooper. (Wilmington Star News)
