Regardless Of His Position, UNC Is Home To Jefferson Boaz

Posted Jun 18, 2019
Jefferson Boaz wanted to make it personal. He wanted to be a Tar Heel and had felt the tug for some time, and if he was going to commit to Mack Brown’s program, he wanted to do so in a manner that further connected him with the UNC staff, future teammates, and the program as a whole. Boaz’s father, Jay, played for Brown at UNC in the early 1990s. (Tar Heel Illustrated)
