Tar Heels QB Yates just may have what it takes for success

Posted Sep 14, 2007

T.J. Yates, the unlikeliest of likely possibilities, is North Carolina's starting quarterback. The fifth different one in four years. Expect there not to be a sixth in 2008. In the 12-team Atlantic Coast Conference, you'd be hard pressed to find many better. Boston College's Matt Ryan was the preseason pick for offensive player of the year for a reason. Yates is the best of the rest. (Rocky Mount Telegram)
