Tar Heels will be good -- even great if QB play improves

Posted Aug 11, 2010
If you didn't know better, you would have thought UNC was a "football school" this spring. The Tar Heels' basketball team didn't make the NCAA Tournament, and an announced crowd of 29,500 showed up for UNC's spring football game, which was televised by ESPN. "They filled up doggone near half the stadium," defensive tackle Marvin Austin said then. "And I don't think that's ever been done in the history of the university for a spring game."
