Quinn: Mature Beyond His Years

Posted Aug 9, 2008

Sometimes it’s easy to forget that football is just a game during the preseason excitement that surrounds training camps across the country. But Richard Quinn understands that fact quite well, and plans to graduate early from North Carolina to provide for his family. "It’s because I have a daughter now," said Quinn. "I want to do the responsible thing as far as graduating and being able to take care of and provide for her." (Inside Carolina)
