Sports in Perspective
The official web site of the Atlantic Coast Conference has announced the times for the first couple of weeks of the 2012 Football season. For the Tar Heels fan base than means they will know when the home opener, scheduled for September 1st, versus Elon will start as well as the road game against Wake [...]
After the first round of the NFL Draft, where UNC’s defensive end Quinton Coples was picked 16th by the NY Jets, round two saw another former Tar Heel go off the board. The Tennessee Titans used their pick, the 52nd overall, on Friday night to take line back Zach Brown. The OLB led the squad [...]
I have to say it was enjoyable hanging out in the new isportsweb forum while watching the first round of the NFL Draft on ESPN. The good side of last night it was that it was the fastest first round ever for this kind of event, and yes I remember when round one took over [...]
Between March Madness, which to me is one of the funnest (and most blogging) time of the year, real life commitments and other things, I had not yet touched on the NCAA’s sanctions against North Carolina’s football program. The big bosses in Indianapolis, with a thirty-eight page document, put the gridiron program on a three [...]
The Atlantic Coast Conference has come out with next season’s football schedule and for North Carolina there is plenty to talk about. The first thing that caught my eye for head coach Larry Fedora’s team is that they will be facing Maryland to end the season, a spot usually saved for Duke or Virginia. But [...]
While there is no denying that head coach Larry Fedora is doing an outstanding job recruiting his first class at North Carolina, it is also true that you can not get them all.

With the 2012 class set for the North Carolina football team, 2013 class off to a decent start and with spring football coming up in the middle of April there is one question that this team will have to deal with. Head coach Larry Fedora has his quarterback in place with Bryn Renner, who last [...]
Just as I blogged about Ryan Green, the running back out of Florida who the UNC’s staff is recruiting, and the trio from Carolina who have committed to the program already, comes news of another in-state player that has given his verbal to head coach Larry Fedora. R.J. Prince, a 6’6″/285 lbs offensive tackle from [...]
As of right now North Carolina football has three players already verbally committed for the 2013 class. Two of them, running back Khris Francis (5’9″/180 lbs) and corner back Korrin Wiggins (6’1″/190 lbs), both come from Hillside High School in Durham, N.C. While the third, wide receiver Jordan Fieulleteau (6’3″/200 lbs), is also an in-state [...]
While the 2012 class is still not on campus head coach Larry Fedora seems to be hitting the recruiting trails hard to get the best he can for his first true class as the head man of the football program. From a link I found on one of my favorite UNC sites, Tar Heel Times, [...]
