Marcus Paige’s Iowa friends to challenge UNC
Posted Dec 3, 2014
So it turns out that UNC forward J.P. Tokoto is the guy Tar Heels Nation needs to be thanking. Several recruiting season ago, UNC coach Roy Williams was in the market for a point guard. Tokoto, whom Williams was recruiting, told the coach about a kid in Iowa who was real nice with the ball in his hands. “That’s how he heard about me,” UNC point guard Marcus Paige said Tuesday.
