Heels focusing on Taylor

Posted Sep 16, 2008
With Virginia Tech next on the slate, North Carolina coach Butch Davis said the buzzword for this week would be "discipline." But with multi-talented Tyrod Taylor running the Hokies' attack, there's a catchphrase going around the practice field, too: "Don't bite the cheese." It means, Davis said, to "not just get sucked in on the first thing that appears, and being more disciplined in your techniques." (Raleigh News & Observer)
