Training camp buzzwords are taking the football world by storm. How do they apply to the Tar Heels?
Every fall, college football fans around the country spend the entire month of August reading training camp stories about their favorite team, and every fall, we find ourselves completely buying into the hype.
UNC fans, of course, are no different. We read the post-practice interviews, catch a few scrimmage highlights, and suddenly we’re all in. I mean, did you hear what [star player] said? We are BACK, baby!
While it’s partially just the nature of sports fans to be irrationally optimistic until proven wrong, I think there is one primarily culprit behind the nationwide training camp hype machine: Buzzwords.
