A team that ‘answered the bell’

Posted Dec 4, 2010
A Carolina football team held together by spit and tape managed to go 7-5 in the regular season. Many may not comprehend how big an accomplishment this is. “This football team, in my 37 years of coaching, is going to be one of my proudest group of guys that I have ever been around, for the way that they have answered the bell every single week, good times, bad times, tough times,” UNC coach Butch Davis said.
