He feels the Heels must stop both Richmond's passing and running games this Saturday. Staff photo by L. C. Barbour. Defensive unit to lead charge against Spiders By GENE UPCHURCH ' Sports Editor The big tackle hits one offensive lineman with a crisp crack of helmets and shoulder pads. He bounces off, pushes past another lineman and grabs a runningback carrying a ball, throwing him to the ground with a grunt. The ball carrier has a pained look on his face as the tackle stands up. He lays still for a moment as the tackle stands over him, glowering. I t makes the ball carrier think the next time he takes the handoff and starts running. Dee Hardison is a defensive tackle for Carolina. He knows the feeling of crashing into linemen and trying desparately to grab a runner or quarterback before they can gain any ground. When he sends them crashing to the ground, it gives them something to think about as they walk back to the huddle. "I like to hit," he says. When he hits someone, they know it, particularly when he throws all of his 6-3'A, 252-pound frame into the hit. Hardison played tailback in high school, but decided when he got to college that he liked to hit rather than being hit, so he changed to defense. And, he has become one of the top defensive players in the conference and in the nation. Nearly every pro football scout who has watched a Carolina football game in the past couple of years has Hardison's name underlined on their flip cards. Hardison is the kind of player who can keep the defense charged up. After a big tackle, whether he is in on it or not, he is clapping and encouraging his defensive teammates. "We all basically do it," he says about cheerleading. "Especially when the other team is driving and you're getting your backs to the wall, you try to keep your head up and stop the drive." . One of the reasons Carolina's defense is expected to do well this season, Hardison says, is that the team has played together so long. Hardison was not disappointed with the defensive performance in the 10-7 loss to Kentucky, where it allowed 12 first downs, and 203 total yards. "I felt pretty good about it," he says. "We stopped their running game. They got three long gains, but overall I think we did pretty good. As for myself, 1 need to get off the ball quicker. We all can improve." Carolina will have a chance this weekend to work on these problems when it plays host to the Richmond Spiders, who are coming after a 36-0 loss to West Virginia.
