Heels' backups ready, if needed

Posted Sep 22, 2005

Should Baker's jacket be no match for State's flak, the next man in will be Joey Bozich, a redshirt freshman whose only college snap in a game came after Baker wobbled off the field last weekend. If Bozich gets his bell rung, Carter-Finley Stadium could be the setting for a "Rudy" sequel. The No. 3 quarterback is Ben Johnson, a walk-on sophomore from Fairview whose position is listed in the media guide as "athlete." (Raleigh News & Observer)
