Rawle Alkins Blog: Michael Jordan comparisons and more
Posted Nov 12, 2015
Rawle Alkins: "When I took my visit to North Carolina, Coach Williams was telling me all about how much of an impact I could make on the state. He said I really reminded him of Michael Jordan. He said Michael was 6-4 when he was there just like me, and Michael did whatever it took to win and he said he sees that in me. Like I said in my last blog, I think it’s better to wait until the spring to sign."
