Rutgers wary of North Carolina's second-string secondary

Posted Sep 23, 2010
The party line at Rutgers all week has been that the players now starting in the secondary for UNC are good ones in their own right. The reality is slightly different. They’re the starters because of an NCAA investigation into possible agent-related benefits and academic fraud that has resulted in the suspension of 12 players. So it begs the question: Wouldn’t that seem to be an area Rutgers might try to exploit when UNC visits on Saturday? (Newark Star-Ledger)
