2009 UNC Football Preview
Posted Aug 13, 2009
In his third year at the helm, there is a sense that Butch Davis has North Carolina on the cusp of greatness. Coming off an 8-5 season in which four losses were by a combined nine points, the Tar Heels seem ready to take the next step towards becoming a national power. Led by a fast defense that returns nine starters and a healthy QB in T.J. Yates, Carolina fans feel this team is poised for an ACC title in the near future.
