Johnathan Alston comfortable on both sides of the ball

Posted Aug 12, 2012
Bunn, N.C. has a population less than 500, but college coaches know how to get to Bunn High School. The Wildcats have sent a handful of players to major colleges the past few years, and Johnathan Alston will be the next. The only question: which side of the ball will he play? "I like wide receiver right now," Alston answered. "But I'm getting a lot of offers on the defensive side of the ball also, outside linebacker." Alston still has to decide on a college. His top three are UNC, N.C. State and Notre Dame. (NBC 17)
