Tar Heels encouraged by array of receivers
Posted Sep 22, 2009
With the bulk of last season’s ball-catchers gone, solid targets for junior quarterback T.J. Yates appeared to be in short supply this season. But after freshman Erik Highsmith caught six balls for 113 yards and a touchdown, fellow freshman Jheranie Boyd caught a 59-yard touchdown pass and freshman Joshua Adams had three catches for 49 yards it appears the Tar Heels have found an answer.
