What Jalen Dalton's commitment means for UNC

Posted Nov 13, 2014
In a season full of disappointments on the field and in recruiting, North Carolina securing the commitment of 247Sports five-star defensive end Jalen Dalton is a glimmer of hope and small victory for a program bogged down with negative recruiting and on-the-field struggles. In the larger landscape, the Dalton commitment today provides the hope that UNC is able to lock down at least some of the best talent in the state. It is a testament to the coaching staff and their recruiting abilities. (Carolina Blue)
