Podcast: Discussing Diego Pounds' Commitment To UNC

Posted Sep 25, 2020
Diego Pounds, who attends Millbrook High School in Raleigh, NC, announced his decision Friday afternoon. The 6-foot-6, 305-pounder chose the Tar Heels over Penn State, which was considered the leader for Pounds for some time. But Mack Brown’s program eventually extended an anticipated offer and UNC was able to land him. Pounds has nearly 40 offers. (Tar Heel Illustrated)
