  • Rushed 16 Times for 101 Yards  & 3 TDs

2015 Recap: After two years of waiting, it is now officially Mitch Trubisky’s time. Trubisky has seen action on the field for the Heels since he arrived in 2014, but it is finally his turn to take over the team. Look for Mitch Trubsiky to have a breakout year and step in to fill the shoes of Marquise Williams. After since glimpses of what he can do, he will finally be able to take command of this veteran high-powered offense. Look for Trubisky to still run the ball some, but pass a little more than Williams. Mitch looks to lead the Tar Heels to back to back double-digit win seasons and give the Heels a shot at the College Football Playoff.
