Yates still UNC's QB, but Renner's on his heels
Posted Aug 24, 2010
UNC coach Butch Davis called senior T.J. Yates his "starting quarterback" today but left open the possibility that freshman Bryn Renner could get the start in the No. 18 Tar Heels' Sept. 4 opener against No. 21 Louisiana State. Both quarterbacks will continue to work with the first team, Davis said, but Yates, who has 31 career starts, continues to lead the competition over the talented redshirt freshman.
