JMU at UNC game observations
Posted Sep 4, 2011
UNC interim head coach Everett Withers had said before the game that senior Casey Barth would get some help with the kicking duties because of a sore thigh (and he did, as Trace Jones and Thomas Moore handled the kickoffs). But it was somewhat of a surprise to see walk-on freshman Thomas Hibbard start at punter; he beat out sophomore C.J. Feagles.
