DE Jalen Dalton commits to UNC
Posted Nov 13, 2014
Defensive end Jalen Dalton (Clemmons, N.C./West Forsyth) committed to North Carolina over Virginia Tech at a press conference at his high school Thursday. Dalton said his family liked Chapel Hill when he took an official visit there in October. “My mom and brother liked it,” Dalton said. “I liked the Business center.” Dalton has more reasons why he chose North Carolina. “It’s a home vibe,” Dalton said. “Not too far away. I like the coaching staff. The defensive line coach (Keith Gilmore) is real high on me.”
