My Carolina Experience: Alge Crumpler

Posted Aug 20, 2014
Former UNC tight end Alge Crumpler: "I've always viewed Carolina as one of the most positive places in the world. I always reinforce it to my kids. I met my wife at UNC, and we love Chapel Hill. I've always enjoyed talking to others throughout my professional career and they always say, 'man, everybody at North Carolina is so close.' That's the way I've always felt about UNC. It pains me that there's a different perception out there." (GoHeels.com)
