UNC to appeal Burney and Williams' NCAA suspensions Friday

Posted Sep 29, 2010
The NCAA has scheduled a Friday conference call in order for UNC to appeal last week's suspensions of football players Kendric Burney and Deunta Williams, UNC athletic director Dick Baddour said today. "Customarily, we would know [the decisions] the same day,'' Baddour said. That means there is a chance that at least one of the secondary starters could play in Saturday’s game against ECU, if their penalties are reduced. (Raleigh News & Observer)
