Roy Williams excited about future of Marcus Paige

Posted Nov 10, 2011
UNC made a couple of visits to Linn-Mar to watch Marcus Paige workout, and Paige and his father, Ellis, visited the Chapel Hill campus last fall. A scholarship offer was made, and Paige accepted, signing his official letter of intent Wednesday. “We’re excited,” Williams said. “He’s a wonderful kid from a wonderful family. A wonderful athlete. You like everything about him. When you watch Marcus, he’s a leader on the court, a coach on the court. He’s really good defensively." (The Gazette)
