CHAPEL HILL– Tar Heel radio listeners will have a new voice to look forward to this coming football season.

Ethan Albright, a four-year North Carolina letter winner and a 16-year NFL veteran, will be featured on the Tar Heel Sports Radio Network as a football analyst for all UNC home games in 2013.

Spending time in the NFL with the Miami Dolphins, Buffalo Bills, Washington Redskins, and San Diego Chargers, Albright was even named to the 2007 NFL Pro Bowl.

Albright will replace Rick Steinbacher, who has served as a network analyst since 2005. Steinbacher will continue as an analyst for road games in 2013.

“Ethan Albright will be a wonderful addition to the Tar Heel Sports Network crew,” says Steinbacher.  “I was honored to be his teammate for 5 years, and he is one of the hardest working, most dependable persons I’ve ever known.  He values the importance of preparation, is a great teammate, and fun to be around.  Carolina Fans will enjoy his perspective on the great game of football.”

Albright says he is excited to be returning to his alma mater this fall. He says he hopes he can “provide valuable insight to listeners.”
