Why Garrett Walston is so important

Posted Oct 10, 2015
Where to start? Class of 2016 prospect Garrett Walston (Wilmington, NC/New Hanover) provides North Carolina with a talented and polished, pass-catching tight end. Essentially, the Tar Heels are getting a jumbo wide receiver with solid speed, great athleticism, ideal size, and incredible hands. More importantly, UNC is getting a no-frills football player who has a love and the instincts for the game that you rarely see anymore. (Carolina Blue)
