A young Houston shows up for UNC

Posted Sep 23, 2007

Coach Butch Davis wants to add new dimensions to North Carolina's offense. He's hoping he might have found one Saturday in tailback Ryan Houston. The freshman had 43 yards on 11 carries, including a 5-yard touchdown run, in UNC's 37-10 loss at No. 23 South Florida. T.J. Yates said the 6-foot-2, 245 pounder "ran like a warrior. He's big, he's strong, he kept the pile moving." (Raleigh News & Observer)
