Tar Heels try not to focus on what might’ve been

Posted Sep 21, 2010
UNC heads to Rutgers this week as the only winless team in the ACC. The Tar Heels are trying not to dwell on the fact that they could have been unbeaten if not for an NCAA investigation that has depleted their roster. “That’s kind of over now,” quarterback T.J. Yates said Monday. “We’ve got two games under our belt, and we kind of know who we’re playing with now. But nobody on this team is making excuses.” (WRAL Sports Fan)
