Dwight Jones takes starting role at receiver for Tar Heels
Posted Sep 1, 2009
When the discussion begins about UNC's receivers, Dwight Jones is one of the first topics. Jones, a sophomore, has landed a spot in the starting lineup for Saturday night’s opener against The Citadel. Butch Davis said there’s still plenty to work out among the pecking order for the receivers. Yet because of so much practice time with the first stringers, there’s a sense of what’s out there with Jones and junior Greg Little.
