Bryn Renner a victim of circumstance
Posted Nov 8, 2013
Bryn Renner’s career is not over, but it is at UNC. The play that did him in was a 3rd quarter scramble that ended with the quarterback sandwiched between two State defenders. There’s been discussion over whether the hits were late (they were, but not “dirty” or uncommon in a football game by any means), but most fan-talk has revolved around the records Renner was closing in on.
