Bunting is firm in his beliefs

Posted Nov 21, 2006

Above all else, John Bunting is stubborn. It is his most endearing and most maddening quality. It is why he is so beloved by his team and praised for his character. It is also why he is 26-45 as UNC's head coach heading into his final game Saturday at Duke. Never has the coach been more stubborn than in the weeks following his Oct. 22 firing. Bunting refused to change anything. (Daily Tar Heel)
