UNC still has confidence in Barth

Posted Oct 1, 2009
North Carolina coach Butch Davis said Wednesday he “absolutely” still has confidence in kicker Casey Barth, despite the fact that the sophomore has missed two field goals from inside 40 yards this season. But has Barth’s confidence been shaken? “I don’t know if his confidence has,’’ Davis said. “I know that he’s mad at himself; I think that any kicker would be." (Raleigh News & Observer)
