Larry Fedora is thankful for…having a great job

In all seriousness, Larry Fedora has the opportunity of a lifetime. He gets paid lots of money to coach a game that kids play. Not only that, he coaches for the University of North Carolina. Free Nike apparel, an office and numerous other perks. Who wouldn’t love that?

Fedora has the opportunity to mold UNC’s football program forever. Many other coaches work in the shadows of their predecessors. Although North Carolina has had other good coaches in the past, none of them continue to be the face of the Tar Heels’ football program.

In basketball, UNC head coach Roy Williams had to follow-up Dean Smith. Fedora is competing with himself. The better he does at Carolina, the more his legacy will prevail within this football program.
