Another Tar Heel legend is born

Posted Sep 24, 2016
Ryan Switzer was already a record breaker, but Saturday he became a North Carolina football legend. No, the senior receiver didn’t make the spectacular, leaping reception with two seconds to play that lifted the Tar Heels to a come-from-behind 37-36 triumph against Pittsburgh in the ACC opener for both teams. But it was Switzer who refused to let UNC lose. (Fayetteville Observer)
