ACC Kickoff: North Carolina

Posted Aug 15, 2006

The team’s top three rushers are back in Ronnie McGill, Barrington Edwards and Cooter Arnold. That group was responsible for 99% of the total rushing yards last season.

The offense will also have a new look under offensive coordinator Frank Cignetti, who preaches a physical running game as part of his west coast philosophy. (850 The Buzz)
