UNC backup quarterbacks look to prove themselves
Posted Sep 26, 2008
Mike Paulus has a stronger arm than Cameron Sexton. Sexton is more mobile than Paulus. But for all their differences, UNC's backup quarterbacks have one important quality in common as they try to replace injured starter T.J. Yates on Saturday at Miami: They have something to prove. "Mike, this is going to be his first go-around out there, so he has to prove what he can do,'' senior receiver Brooks Foster said. "Cam, he has a little experience, but T.J. took his job, so he's got to go out there and see if he can get his job back."
