UNC ready for second spring under Butch Davis

Posted Mar 3, 2008

North Carolina opens spring practice today. UNC is the second ACC school to open spring drills. After spending his first season at on the sidelines, Mike Paulus should take center stage this spring. If he performs well, he just might have a chance to push T.J. Yates for playing time this fall. North Carolina fans now will get a chance to see if Paulus can live up to the fanfare that accompanied his arrival on campus. (Yahoo! Sports)
