The Story Behind Kaimon Rucker's Number Change
Posted Apr 1, 2024
Kaimon Rucker has worn jersey number 25 for each of the 2,132 snaps he’s played on defense UNC. No more. Rucker has switched to number 7 for this upcoming season, his last in Chapel Hill. “It’s something that I’ve been kind of wanting to do, but as me being an underclassman, I didn’t have that opportunity just yet,” he recently said after a UNC practice.
