Lucas: Battles To Watch

Posted Aug 3, 2007

One of the most anticipated preseasons in recent Carolina football history opens this afternoon when Butch Davis's 2007 Tar Heels take the practice field for the first time. Per NCAA rules, it'll just be a shorts-and-helmets workout--full pads won't be added until Tuesday, August 7. Despite the lack of full contact, Friday's session will be the first chance for a bevy of players to make their first move up the depth chart. (Tar Heel Blue)
