2015 Recap: Jon Heck has been a starter since day one for the Tar Heels. The only games who didn’t start were 2 games in 2014, due to injury. Jon Heck is a vital part of the Tar Heel running game. With Logan and Hood getting more touches this year, the Tar Heels could be on pace to have 2 1000 yard rushers. Look for Jon Heck to be a big part of the Heels success in 2016.
