UPDATE: Key returning players have switched positions. Hank Gbbs is officially a TE now who can play quarterback at anytime during a game or serve as a big physical presence in various packages. He injured his throwing shoulder early in the Stephen F. Austin game and was unable to return in 2024. He's one of three TEs who'll open NFL scouts' eyes with his size, toughness, strength and athleticism. Former safety Rocco Traore is now plalying running back. Coach Lamb talks about his abilities to carry the ball and help the Bears on offense. Traore has been in Greeley for four years after a standout high school career in Washington.
UPDATE: Winter conditioning and spring football can sometimes be a grind so Carson Keach had a little fun last week following an interception. The sophomore from Ponderosa HS in Parker, CO executed his best cartwheel downfield after picking off a pass. Two more weeks of spring football remain for the UNC Bears.

UPDATE: Redshirt Jr. Rocco Traore enters his fourth season with the UNC Bears football program. However, this is his first month playing running back at the college level. He was a great running back in high school in the Seattle area but was more valuable as a defensive back in Greeley the past three years. He's seen a lot during his time with the Bears including teammates leaving like Carver Cheeks and Noah Mangham did last week. Rocco takes it all in stride.

Good Morning: Happy Easter! One of the spiritual leaders on the UNC Bears team is R-Jr. LB Jordan Davis (32) who always has a smile on his face and puts team first. He was a star at Cherokee Trail HS in Aurora and his dad played running back at Kansas with the Jayhawks in the late 90s. Davis is one of those guys you have to have in order to enjoy success in college football.
