Football season is less than eight weeks away. The Heels will get a
later start than most teams, opening at Georgia Tech on Septermber 10.
Rocky Rivero has a great article at Inside Carolina about the improvements we'll notice in Kenan Stadium this fall and in years to come.
I understand that enhancements need to be made to keep Kenan in line
with modern stadiums, but I certainly hope we don't lose the ambience
and atmosphere that make Kenan what it is. Don't lose heritage and
history for the sake of modernization.
We have news that Eric Montross and Rick Steinbacher will take over for Mick Mixon in the radio booth for basketball and football, respectively.
This is the best they could do, and I mean that in a good way. Having
two successful Tar Heels from their respective sports, both with a
great sense of Carolina's athletic history. I have enjoyed listening to
Rick and Eric in recent years and look forward to the beginning of
their eras as color analysts.
Unfortunately, there will never be another 'Woody and Mick.' Sure,
there will be 'Woody and Mick,' and 'Woody and E-ric,' but Mick Mixon
brought a charm and humor element that played perfectly off Woody's
'straight man.' We'll be listening to Mick down the road in Charlotte
for sure.
