Bunting, Tar Heels remained composed

Posted Oct 30, 2006

North Carolina coach John Bunting and wide receiver Jesse Holley haven't always seen eye to eye. But no matter the disagreement, Holley is grateful that Bunting was the one to guide his college career. It all began five years ago when Bunting showed up in Holley's Rozelle, N.J., living room and spent time with the recruit and his grandmother. Holley saw Bunting's dedication then and still sees it now, even with the coach's departure a month away. (Rocky Mount Telegram)
