A day after injured quarterback T.J. Yates returned to practice in a limited capacity, North Carolina coach Butch Davis made it sound like replacement Cam Sexton is in good shape to keep the starting job. Davis said Yates is still "a ways away" from playing. Yates participated in some individual drills Tuesday. But the team medical staff still is keeping him out of drills this week that would call for him to scramble around or avoid contact.

Yates should start. It's BS to lose your starting position because of Injury. Yates throws the best deep ball and he is a more efficient passer. Sexton does provide the mobility and being able to throw on the run. But I hate seeing a receiver beat his man, and then have to slow down to wait for the ball to get there. Yates is a stud. Thats why he became a starter last year, and he was the starter at the beginning of this year. Sexton is a great backup. We are already bowl eligible. Put Yates back in and let him get his feel back so he can lead us to a good bowl victory.
