North Carolina Poised To Play Faster Tempo With McDonald’s All-American Ian Jackson

Posted May 20, 2024
Our Savior Lutheran (N.Y.) coach Peter Wehye spent the past season coaching Ian Jackson and believes the high-flying New York City guard will have a big impact when he suits up at UNC next season. The way he sees it, the 6-foot-5 Jackson will not only be a two-way player for the Tar Heels, but he’ll also enable Carolina to play a more up-tempo style. (Forbes)
