Battle at quarterback to highlight Tar Heels' preseason camp

Posted Aug 4, 2006

North Carolina coach John Bunting has a choice to make at quarterback, but he hopes Joe Dailey and Cam Sexton shake off the rust and decide the issue themselves. Dailey and Sexton, who didn't play at all last season, are the top candidates to replace Matt Baker as the Tar Heels' quarterback. Bunting said if one doesn't claim the job then it's possible they could share it. (Winston-Salem Journal)
