North Carolina recruit James Michael McAdoo has game and now a full name
Posted May 25, 2011
It might seem like bad news for North Carolina fans that James McAdoo will not play basketball for the Tar Heels in the 2011-12 season. It's not. That's because James Michael McAdoo will be there. McAdoo, a gifted 6-8, 215-pound combo forward from Norfolk, Va., asked North Carolina officials to make it known his full first name is James Michael -- his middle name is Ray -- and that he'd prefer to be known by that name.
