Turner's Take: Barth Seeks Medical Hardship Waiver
Posted Oct 21, 2011
You've probably already heard that Tar Heel kicker Casey Barth will seek a medical hardship waiver that would allow him to play in 2012. Barth strained his groin against Virginia in the third game of the season. Since then, field goal and extra point duties have been handled by freshman walk-on Thomas Moore. "We feel like that his injury won't let him come back this year," interim head coach Everett Withers said Thursday of Barth.
