The long, winding path of North Carolina WR Thomas Jackson
Posted Nov 2, 2016
Thomas Jackson grew up a Tar Heel fan partially because he didn't have any other choice. His dad, David, a former defensive back, was captain of the 1969 team, lettering in '68 and '69. Thomas wears the same No. 48 as David because he was confident that despite his walk-on status, no one would ever try to take his dad's number away from him.
