Posted Dec 27, 2009
UNC defensive back Deunta Williams plans to return for his senior season. After the Tar Heels' Meineke Bowl loss to Pittsburgh, Williams told Tim Hall of 99.9FM The Fan he is "all the way back" and committed "100-percent" to returning for the 2010 season. Williams' fellow defensive back Kendric Burney was not as certain. Burney, also a junior, says he will first go home and relax before making a decision. (WRAL Sports Fan)
