Sophomore defensive lineman Jared McAdoo has been released from the UNC football team after violating team rules, according to a statement released by head coach Butch Davis. Faced with evidence of misconduct and disregard for team policy, Davis’ dismissal of McAdoo is the right move at a time when UNC football cannot afford to make any more mistakes. (Daily Tar Heel)
