Carolina Coach Larry Fedora was posed a question Thursday at the Raleigh Sports Club that assumed Mitch Trubisky would be the starting quarterback for the 2016 Tar Heels. “I don't know who told you Mitch is our starter,” Fedora answered. “He may be. He has to earn it.”
Told of the exchange less than an hour later, Trubisky smiled and shrugged.
“That’s Coach, he’ll keep you grounded all the time,” Trubisky said. “That’s how he operates. I know that. For him saying that just gives me a heads up that I need to come in to work during spring ball and show him I am the guy, let him and the coaches make the decision after that.
