T.J. Yates ready for action

Posted Jul 19, 2008

North Carolina quarterback T.J. Yates has heard a few teammates grumble about the impending heat and headaches of training camp two-a-days. But after missing spring practice because of shoulder surgery, the sophomore starter can't wait. "I'm really anxious, because I haven't even put on shoulder pads in a really long time,'' Yates said early this week. "I'm excited to see how it feels -- to just get back out there."
