Quinshad Davis' career with Tar Heels nothing to sleep on

Posted Sep 23, 2015
It’s not that Quinshad Davis was avoiding UNC football coach Larry Fedora during the recruiting process. It’s that he didn’t want to talk to Fedora when the coach would call. “My mom would pick up the phone and say, ‘Q, Coach is on the phone,’” Davis said. His response: “Coach I’m asleep right now, I’ll call you back. All the time. I did that to every coach who called me.” (Burlington Times News)
