No rest for the Heels

Posted Oct 23, 2007

An open date on the schedule last week gave the North Carolina football team time to get healthy for its game at Wake Forest. But the Tar Heels will be less than full strength Saturday (noon, WRAL) after the suspension of two players. UNC coach Butch Davis announced Monday that starting cornerback Jermaine Strong and reserve offensive tackle Andre Barbour have been suspended indefinitely for "violation of university and team policy."
