Patience pays off for new UNC quarterback commit Michael Merdinger

Posted May 10, 2023
Michael Merdinger, who was born in Israel and didn’t start playing football until he was 10, had a handful of Power 5 offers but committed to UNC last weekend. "Education is a big deal. North Carolina is a public Ivy League school. That matters a lot to me. What they do offensively is amazing. They’re QBU in a way: Sam Howell, Drake Maye, Mitch Trubisky." (Palm Beach Post)
