Jonathan Powell’s fire finds home at UNC

Posted Oct 5, 2025
He doesn’t mean to do it. He snaps. One bad possession, one missed defensive rotation and suddenly, UNC sophomore guard Jonathan Powell is tearing at his practice jersey, fabric ripping down the middle, and emotion flowing. It’s not a tantrum. It’s combustion. "I have a flip [of a switch] every time I get on the court. Like a switch I can flip on and off." (Tar Heel Tribune)
