Da'Norris Searcy’s Return Ignites Rout

Posted Sep 6, 2009
On the first play of the fourth quarter of Saturday night’s 40-6 victory over The Citadel, North Carolina junior Da’Norris Searcy lined up underneath a punt off the foot of Bulldog punter Cass Couey. “Coach (Charlie) Williams looked at me and said, ‘Stay on the 10 (yard-line). If they kick it over your head let it go, or just fair-catch it. We’re going to get good field position,’” said Searcy. But Searcy was in no mood to make a fair catch. (Rivals.com)
