Yates could lead Heels to bowl
Posted Sep 12, 2007
After two weeks of football, it appears North Carolina might have an opportunity to challenge for a bowl bid after going 3-9 last season. The reason? Redshirt freshman quarterback T.J. Yates, who worked on the scout team last year behind Joe Dailey and Cameron Sexton, is a lot better than expected. He shows an uncanny ability to keep his eyes downfield and avoid the rush. His most impressive skill is his ability to throw the deep ball.
