Greatest former UNC athlete by state (Hawaii): Jack Tabb

Posted May 13, 2019
Former North Carolina tight end Jack Tabb was recruited to UNC while he attended Red Bank Catholic in Red Bank, NJ, but his representation in this series is because of some formative years he spent as a child in Hawaii, where he lived for four years while his mother was stationed there. For Tabb, though, that’s also where he was bitten by the football bug. (Tar Heel Illustrated)
