T.J. Yates ready for Georgia Tech

Posted Sep 14, 2010
For T.J. Yates, a simple transfer of the football to a tailback on Saturday will feel more like getting a leg up than administering a handoff. Yates didn’t object to the disproportionate burden he bore in UNC’s season-opening game with LSU. Still, the quarterback from Marietta was pleased to learn Monday that top running back Shaun Draughn has been cleared to play against Georgia Tech this week. (Atlanta Journal-Constitution)
