Before the season began, most expected running backs Elijah Hood and T.J. Logan to carry the North Carolina rushing attack, with perhaps some Romar Morris or Khris Francis sprinkled in.
But true freshman Ty’Son Williams has carved out an early role for himself in the UNC running back rotation.
“He just came in, he put his head down, he’s just a grinder,” Hood said. “He’s got a big future ahead of him if he keeps up that work ethic, I think he’s got a lot of potential.”
Williams does everything proactively. He enrolled at UNC in January to be able to participate in spring practices.
