UNC injuries linger
Posted Sep 17, 2009
North Carolina's offense will be without two starters for three to four weeks, coach Butch Davis said Wednesday. Center Lowell Dyer (shoulder) and tight end Zack Pianalto (foot) will not play against East Carolina, and both could miss up to a month of the season. Davis said the significant injuries won't change UNC's game plan on offense. "We are, kind of, who we are," Davis said.
