ItsAUThing.com — Formerly allCanesBlog.com — It's All About 'The U'!

What a roller coaster it’s been this season. One minute torn up over losses or coaching issues and the next thing you know, one of your own is gone forever.

I ranted and raved last night about the state of the program and coaching options now that Butch Davis is bleeding Tar Heel Blue.

I droned on about how I wanted the coaching staff to address the quarterback situation by stating Kirby Freeman will start in place of Kyle Wright because he looked good against Maryland and deserves a shot to prove his worth. Anything but the cop out that there’s no controversy because Wright is hurt and not an option.

While I still stand by all my thoughts last night and will have more later this week, I can’t help but not give a damn about any of that today.

While I blogged Monday night, friends, family and teammates were at the New Birth Baptist Church in Opa-Locka for a viewing. Later today, they’ll return for a funeral and then lay him to rest.

Xs and Os, head coaching options, wins and losses… they’ve all been returned to the back burner for now. Today is all about #95. Pata deserves all our focus.

allCanesBlog.com sends its thoughts and prayers to the friends, family and teammates of Bryan Pata.

Last Tuesday you got the news he was gone and today you’ll bury him. It’s still not right.

Stay strong.

For information on where to send your donations for the Pata family, click here to check out a recent blog where we posted the info.

Also, our new U Family shirt is now in stock. It retails for $16.99 and between now and Christmas Eve, $9.50 of each shirt sold will go directly to the family of #95. Please do what you can to support the cause.
