Bunting likes QB carousel

Posted Jul 25, 2006

John Bunting said quarterbacks Cam Sexton and Joe Dailey are "neck-and-neck" for the starting job entering fall practice, noting that he hasn't ruled out using a two-quarterback system this season. "It worked before. We won five straight games with it in '01,'' Bunting said Monday. Bunting said coaches will monitor both quarterbacks closely during practices, and both will work with the first-team offense. The deciding factor, he said, probably won't be who makes the most big plays -- but who makes the least big mistakes. (Raleigh News & Observer)
