Starting from Scratch: Sexton is eager to put past behind, win quarterback job for Tar Heels

Posted Apr 4, 2007

Cameron Sexton is starting over at North Carolina for the second time in three years, and this time, he's determined to nail down the starting quarterback's job. UNC's spring football practice brought major changes for Sexton, who will be a redshirt sophomore next season. He's playing for his second coach, Butch Davis, and working with his third offensive coordinator, John Shoop, since 2005. (Winston-Salem Journal)
