Heels to play at noon

Posted Oct 26, 2005

The television switch for Saturday's UNC-Miami game means the game will be available in about 900,000 fewer households. According to an ESPN spokesman, ESPN reaches 90.3 million homes; ESPN2 reaches 89.4 million. The Tar Heels still plan to fly to Miami on Friday. "It doesn't change the way we prepare; it doesn't change our flight," UNC coach John Bunting said. He added that it will change their meeting schedules and the team will get less rest.
