Bobby Jones - Before a Nike poster dubbed him “The Secretary of Defense,” Jones was a star in Chapel Hill, leading the North Carolina Tar Heels on the court. He helped the Tar Heels get to the Final Four as a sophomore in 1972, then as a senior in 1974 he was an All-American and helped Dean Smith’s side complete a historic comeback against rival Duke.
