Demon June is heating up fast, earning preseason Doak Walker Award watchlist honors as North Carolina’s breakout sophomore running back. Last season, he started nine games, led the team in rushing with over 400 yards and TDs, and added 17 catches for 160 yards — proving he’s a dual-threat weapon. His standout game vs. Syracuse featured 100+ rushing yards and a TD, while his freshman debut vs. Richmond was historic with 148 yards and a school-record TD reception. With the Tar Heels heading to Ireland to face TCU on Aug. 29, June’s rise is just beginning — and the award committee (made of past winners, NFL legends, and media) will be watching closely.
