Searcy's return(s) give UNC a boost

Posted Oct 4, 2010
When ECU punted on its first possession Saturday, UNC kick returner Da'Norris Searcy was supposed to fair catch the ball. But after sitting out the first three games because of the ongoing investigations into agents and academics, the senior couldn't wait to get the ball in his hands and instead tried to return the punt. Even though Searcy recorded zero yards on the return, the veteran safety was just excited to be back in a game. (Durham Herald-Sun)
