No ACC suspensions for UNC's Reddick, N.C. State's Williams

No suspensions will be assessed to North Carolina’s Kevin Reddick or N.C. State’s Jarvis Williams for their roles in an end-zone scuffle Saturday, ACC associate commissioner Michael Kelly said today.

Both players were given personal fouls and ejected from the 29-25 N.C. State win, but referee Brad Allen’s report categorized them as flagrant fouls, not fighting fouls. The latter would have warranted one-game suspensions.

UNC's McAdoo, Reddick survive apartment fire

North Carolina linebacker Kevin Reddick and defensive lineman Mike McAdoo awoke in a hotel this morning after their Durham apartment was destroyed by fire Saturday.

Reddick and McAdoo lost everything, and while they have renter's insurance, there's plenty they can't replace, including the ring commemorating the state title Reddick won at New Bern, or the iPad full of pictures of his 11-month-old daughter.

“I’ve just been trying to stay focused and not let it get me down,” Reddick said. “It got me down the first couple days. I’m just trying to blow it off, but it’s not the easiest thing to blow off.”

Sorting UNC's depth chart

UNC released its two-deep chart for Saturday's opener against The Citadel (6 p.m.). There were few surprises but among the highlights:

• Sophomore Zach Brown will get the starting nod at weakside linebacker over freshman Kevin Reddick. Brown, the hero of timing day with a 4.28 in the 40, played primarily on special teams last season.

Two UNC recruits enroll early

Football recruits Kevin Reddick and Josh Adams are both enrolled at UNC for the spring semester, a school spokesman confirmed, meaning they will be able to participate in spring drills and get a jump-start on the 2009 season.

But with the February 4 signing date approaching, it's still not totally certain who all will join them on the team next fall.
