A UNC Win Over Miami Would Help Retain Coach, Recruits

Posted Oct 5, 2006

North Carolina's bye week could not have come at a better time for North Carolina coach John Bunting. Coming off a 52-7 shellacking at the hands of Clemson, Bunting's job seat was hotter than ever. The bye week helped cool off that seat a little, but a win over Miami would go a long way towards preserving his job and the recruiting commitments he's established for 2007. (AOL Fanhouse)
