Tar Heels getting the most out of Dwight Jones

Posted Oct 18, 2010
Junior Dwight Jones compiled an epic night with seven receptions for 198 yards and two touchdowns. In the first half alone, Jones amassed more receiving yards (188) than he owned in his entire Tar Heels career, a span of 15 previous games that had produced 125 yards. “I knew after the first play I was going to have a great game,” he said. “You get a big play like that at the first of the game, from then on you’re really feeling it."
