Shea Rush will play for Roy Williams, like his father wasn’t able to do
Posted Mar 4, 2016
Shea Rush is 18 years old, friendly, smart enough for the Ivy League and a talented enough basketball player that he will be a preferred walk-on at North Carolina next season. But, at the moment, he is stumped. North Carolina is his dream school, partly for its business school, but also because of its basketball coach. Roy Williams recruited Rush’s father in the 1990s.
