Former NC State DB Jakeen Harris Discusses Transferring To UNC
Posted Feb 22, 2024
When he met with media in early February, Jakeen Harris wore UNC slides. This makes sense, as Harris is a new Tar Heel via the transfer portal. But his socks weren’t Jordan Brand — instead, they were black with a red Adidas logo. The defensive back's wardrobe still contains remnants of his previous school: N.C. State. The transition has been smooth.
