Posted Sep 22, 2008
Quarterback T.J. Yates' status for North Carolina's game at Miami on Saturday was still unknown late yesterday afternoon, one day after he was injured in a 20-17 loss to Virginia Tech. Yates suffered a sprained left ankle with a little more than nine minutes left in the third quarter when sacked for an 18-yard loss. He did not play in the final 23:53. He had difficulty walking after the injury and limped off the field at Kenan Stadium. (Winston-Salem Journal)
