UNC Welcomes Back Defensive Line Coach Deke Adams

CHAPEL HILL, N.C. - Deke Adams, who was a member of Larry Fedora’s initial coaching staff at North Carolina, has returned to Chapel Hill as the Tar Heels’ defensive line coach. Adams coached the UNC defensive line in 2012 and also spent three years with Fedora at Southern Miss from 2009-11.

“We’re excited to bring Deke and his family back to Chapel Hill,” said Fedora. “Obviously, I have a lot of familiarity with Deke from his previous time with us at Southern Miss and UNC, and he’s proven to be an outstanding coach and recruiter. His knowledge of our recruiting area will be a tremendous benefit as we move forward.
