James McAdoo is good will ambassador
Posted Apr 10, 2011
UNC needed frontcourt players, and had a spot for James McAdoo if he was willing to come a year early. He was one English class from completing the requirements to graduate. Ronnie and Janet left the decision up to James. He didn't have much time to mull it. He had a 12-day mission trip to Nicaragua upcoming. Many people, Janet and Ronnie included, thought James was as good as gone. The trip to Nicaragua offered an escape. James didn't think about basketball. When he returned, he decided to stay.
