John Shoop, a "volunteer quarterbacks coach" at Dartmouth in 1991, is now the offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach at North Carolina. Inside Carolina has a five-part interview with him this week. Here are links to Part 1 on his acclimating to UNC, and Part 2 on the art of gameplanning. (After Dartmouth Shoop was a grad assistant at Vanderbilt before going to the NFL in a variety of roles. He's been back in the college game at UNC for two years. Find his North Carolina bio here.)
