Hanson slips by Paulus in lineup
Posted Sep 10, 2009
In the fourth quarter of North Carolina's 40-6 season-opening win over The Citadel on Saturday, starting quarterback T.J. Yates was taken out to give his backups some snaps of game action. But in a surprise twist, the first quarterback to come off the bench for the Tar Heels was not sophomore Mike Paulus but rather redshirt freshman Braden Hanson.
