Tudor: Cam Sexton needs to start at QB

Posted Nov 22, 2008
This is not 2009. It's 2008. That's why North Carolina coach Butch Davis should start Cameron Sexton at quarterback when the Tar Heels face N.C. State today. Whether Sexton is the best quarterback in the program isn't really the issue at this point. His primary rival, early-season starter T.J. Yates, may be the more complete player and the logical choice to direct what will be an ACC title contender in '09. But Sexton, a long-suffering redshirt junior, deserves this start.
