Jay Bateman on Dontavius Nash: 'Safety Body with Corner Skills'
Posted Jan 15, 2021
"Dontavius Nash was the first kid to commit to our class. He got the thing rolling," UNC defensive coordinator Jay Bateman said. "When he committed, it was a big big deal for us; he was one of the highest-rated kids in North Carolina and a kid that grew up a Tar Heel fan. When you get a kid like him committed, it kind of raises everyone else’s eyebrows."
