Davis says Sexton will remain the starting QB

Posted Nov 17, 2008
Coach Butch Davis of North Carolina is not considering a quarterback change for this week's home finale against N.C. State after Cameron Sexton's struggling performance in a loss at Maryland on Saturday. T.J. Yates, the starter in the first three games, is available after recovering from a broken left ankle but Davis will stick with Sexton, a junior who has directed UNC to a 5-2 record since Yates was injured on Sept. 20.
