Q&A with Butch Davis, Part II

Posted Jul 28, 2008

"We really, truly, during this training camp, we’ve got to find a No. 2 and No. 3 running back -- I mean that is really really critical. We’ve got to try to make sure that we’ve got someone gifted enough as the No. 2 quarterback. Somebody, that if something happens to T.J. [Yates] -- who’s healthy now, his shoulder is good -- we’ve got to have somebody else that our team and everybody else has confidence in that can go in and win." (Inside Carolina)
