CHAPEL HILL — A couple of North Carolina football personnel notes to pass along on this Saturday from Chapel Hill, where the Tar Heels earlier today hosted their annual fan day and media day festivities.

First things first: UNC coach Larry Fedora announced that Fabby Desir, who started two games at linebacker a season ago, has left the team. Desir would have been a senior this season. He transferred to UNC before the 2011 season from Lackawanna College in Scranton, Pa.
