VOD: Meet North Carolina's 'Supervisor of Morale' Caleb Pressley

Today’s video of the day looks at North Carolina and former backup quarterback Caleb Pressley.

Pressley is the self-appointed “Supervisor of Morale” for the Tar Heels and is often seen on the North Carolina sidelines wearing NFL jerseys of former North Carolina players.

Pressley’s job is simple — increase morale and signal in plays from the sideline.

"I do signal in plays, but the rest of the time I take it upon myself to be what other people need me to be," Pressley told USA Today. "I know everyone so well because I've been here for four years. I obviously know the quarterbacks really well. Part of it is building relationships and knowing what people need you to be — and being that for them.”

ESPN did a lengthy interview with Pressley, who is technically a student manager, in which he explains his position and the challenges that go along with it..

No doubt Pressley’s job was difficult this week as the Tar Heels tried to shake off a 70-41 loss to East Carolina and focus on this week’s game against Clemson. But it’s these tough times in which Pressley embraces his role the most.

"It's just cool. No one's argued it,” Pressley told USA Today. “I think I've lived up to the title."
