UNC may lose Donavan Tate to baseball

Posted Aug 8, 2009
Donavan Tate, a North Carolina freshman quarterback, is expected to arrive on campus today to start football practice but how long he stays is anyone's guess. Tate is also an outstanding center fielder as well, and was the No. 3 choice in June's baseball draft by the San Diego Padres. He and his family are still negotiating with Padres officials.
