Greg Little: UNC Shouldn’t Have To Vacate Wins

Well there shouldn’t have been a lot of things but here we are.

Paulus Transferring To William & Mary

Not a surprise at all.

It became clear after Mike Paulus dropped to third on the depth chart behind Braden Hansen and a wildly inaccurate T.J. Yates, the handwriting was on the wall. When you toss Bryn Renner into the mix, I am guessing Paulus did not want run the risk of being fourth on [...]

High Stakes In Atlanta On Saturday

My latest post at Raycom Sports UNC blog:

For UNC, this game is all about opportunity.  UNC’s 3-0 start this season is the best opening win streak since 1997 when the Heels started 8-0. With a hapless Virginia team the following week and FCS team Georgia Southern after that, UNC has a good shot at [...]

Davis: Heading That Way

In the direction of his Miami teams from the late 1990s that is:

But Davis was quick to dispel thoughts this spring that in two seasons under his watch the Tar Heels have reached the level of the Miami Hurricanes he coached back to prominence from 1995-2000.

“The concepts and philosophies are obviously the same,” [...]

Odds And Ends

Slight Diversion Edition.

UNC opens baseball season today at 3 PM against VMI as the #2 team in the country.  This game will reopen Boshamer Stadium which was being renovated all of last season and by all accounts is totally awesome now.  If NC State’s Lee Fowler has taught us anything it is that having [...]

UNC’s Roster Numbers? Davis Has A Plan

You may recall there was a flurry of articles about the number of commitments UNC had not lining up with the number of scholarships available from graduating seniors.  The N&O published the original article and football blogs like The Wizard of Odds basically accused Butch Davis of oversigning players and screwing kids without any evidence [...]

Cam Sexton Not Returning

Update: ACC Now has an interview with Cam Sexton.  Two key points: 1. Not starting the NC State game was a factor although Sexton says a small one.  2. Butch Davis wanted Sexton to return saying there would be a competition for the starting job.  Sexton declined and now will go the DII route to [...]

Obligatory “BC Fires Coach For Interview” Post

Gene DeFilippo draws a line in the sand and Jeff Jagodzinski promptly steps right over it.

Nicks To Turn Pro

No surprise here.

Hakeem Nicks has the tools to be a good NFL receiver and there is no need to risk injury for what is probably very little in the way of upward movement in the draft.  Besides that, Nicks broke most of the receiving records at UNC in only three years and his 217 [...]

Okay, This Deserves Another Look

I know I said I was done with football, but we should really take one more look at Hakeem Nicks’ freak show catch during the Car Bowl on Saturday because (1) it is probably the last time we will see Nicks in a Tar Heel uniform and (2) it may be one of the best [...]

Something To Think About

Last season under current UNC defensive coordinator Everett Withers Minnesota was 119th(dead last) in the NCAA in total defense giving up an average of 518 yards per game.  This season without Withers Minnesota improved to 75th in total defense giving up 378.4 yards per game.

Last season, UNC with Chuck Pagano running the defense was [...]
