Missed Opportunities

Posted Nov 27, 2005

It turns out John Bunting is a fortune-teller. After Carolina's 27-21 loss to Georgia Tech on Sept. 12, Bunting walked into a weight room being used as a press room and said these words: "It was a giant M.O. We missed an opportunity. We had a chance to do something really special." Take those words, spin them around, recycle them and 11 games later they're still perfectly appropriate. (Tar Heel Blue)
