Bunting may play 2 quarterbacks against Rutgers

Posted Aug 25, 2006

The plan for practice was that one of the quarterbacks would be the clear starter by now. But Frank Cignetti, the Tar Heels' first-year offensive coordinator, said the situation is more help than hindrance. (Winston-Salem Journal)
