Bentley Spain jumped into the starting lineup this spring season over John Ferranto. Can Spain be UNC’s Left Tackle of the future?
The biggest news coming out of spring ball, in my opinion, was Bentley Spain‘s jump up to the top of the depth chart over John Ferranto at left tackle. This is a big deal. Ferranto was basically a 13 game starter for the Tar Heels, and was a good, not great, not awful, tackle last season. The fact that Spain was able to leapfrog Ferranto and take hold of the starting position heading into the fall is great news for Spain and hopefully good news for the Tar Heel offensive line next fall.
