What's new, what to look for this spring for UNC football | News & Observer

North Carolina’s football team has more healthy bodies and some new blood on the coaching staff. There’s even a new look to Kenan Stadium.

Spring football, by nature, is about change and those are all good ones for the Tar Heels after a difficult 2017 season.

UNC, 3-9 a year ago, limped to the finish line with 22 players on the injured list. They are not all back for spring practice but enough of them are to make a difference.

As a policy, Fedora doesn’t talk about injuries but he was willing to concede there are more healthy players who are capable of going through practice on the spring roster than there were at the end of the 2017 season.
