Meet Holden Geriner: What UNC Football Will Face at Quarterback Against Pitt

Posted Oct 6, 2026
The Pitt Panthers have been one of the ACC's most productive offenses, averaging 38.4 points and 478 yards per game. But they will move forward without starting quarterback Mason Heintschel, who suffered a torn ACL against Virginia Tech and will miss the rest of the season. That puts the offense in the hands of fifth-year quarterback Holden Geriner. (Tar Heel Blue)
