Carolina Connections Exist for Cignetti

Posted Jan 5, 2006

"I remember sitting in a classroom and Gary (Tranquill) took me through step one: Mike (middle linebacker) declaration," Cignetti said. He's built a very impressive resume from that day in a classroom with Tranquill 10 years ago. He's been the student. Now he's the teacher. And now Cignetti will be sitting in the office where many telephone calls to him have originated over the past few years. (Tar Heel Blue)
