UNC is forced to adjust schedule

Posted Oct 20, 2009
UNC will play Florida State Thursday at 8 p.m., which will be the only major-college game that day. School officials had resisted for years requests to play a Thursday home game because of parking issues during the school week, but Holden Thorp, the UNC chancellor, and Dick Baddour, the athletics director, led the effort to clear the way. Coach Butch Davis of UNC said that the preparations were much more involved than for a game on Saturday. (Winston-Salem Journal)
