UNC Football: A new role coming for George Pettaway?

A few weeks away from the regular season, are Mack Brown and the UNC football program preparing a new role for George Pettaway?

The UNC football program’s running back room is full of depth but doesn’t necessarily feature one that will receive the bulk of the carries.

Instead of relying on one or two players to carry the load, the Tar Heels will likely use a running back-by-committee approach, similar to what they did a season ago.

One of the players in the mix to earn carries is rising sophomore George Pettaway, who saw limited action as a freshman.
