4-Star 2022 RB George Pettaway Discusses UNC, Recruitment

Posted Mar 9, 2021
George Pettaway: "Ever since the first day (new UNC running backs coach Larry Porter) came, he reached out to me and I reached out to coach (Mack) Brown and Dre Bly. We’ve been building that relationship. It's crazy coach Gillespie left, but now Larry Porter is there, and I think he's gonna do a great job with that organization and those running backs."
