Kanler Coker gets a jumpstart

Posted Apr 26, 2012
Quarterback prospect and future Tar Heel Kanler Coker graduated in December from Flowery Branch High School in Georgia. He could not enroll at UNC for the spring semester because he did not choose the Tar Heels until first-year coach Larry Fedora came calling in January. By then it was past time to enroll. So Coker is working for his father and working on his game and his body with his time. (Carrboro Citizen)
