Dwight Jones, a Tar Heel recruit, enrolls at Valdosta State
Posted Aug 1, 2008
Receiver Dwight Jones of Burlington has given up on his attempts to play football at North Carolina and will instead play for Division II Valdosta State. Valdosta State finished 13-1 last season and won the Division II national championship. Jones, who played at Burlington Cummings, signed with North Carolina in February 2007 but couldn't enroll that summer because of academic shortcomings.
