In a transition period for the offense, how do the position groupings stack up?

When Larry Fedora accepted the head coaching position at UNC in December 2011, the Tar Heel’s identity would drastically change for years to come.

Under Fedora, the Tar Heels began a transition from a defensive minded team to one driven by their offense.

With Fedora’s first recruiting class graduating this offseason and others leaving for the NFL; the offense faces a transition period.

UNC Football will look to replace the likes of Ryan Switzer, Bug Howard, Elijah Hood, TJ Logan, Mack Hollins, Mitch Trubisky, Caleb Peterson, and Lucas Crowley.

It certainly won’t be easy, but a few nice recruiting classes could go a long way for the Tar Heels in the future.

With nearly every position on the offense facing a major change, it is anyone’s guess how they will perform on the field come week one. Here is how they stack up on paper.
