Jared McAdoo works his way to top-level football recruit

Posted Jan 3, 2009
Jared McAdoo never picked up a football before high school. Yet once Chapel Hill High football coach Isaac Marsh saw the size and athleticism of the freshman, he realized McAdoo's football potential. Marsh sat McAdoo down and told him that if he gave football a chance and worked hard at it, by his senior year he'd have an opportunity to go anywhere he wanted. Marsh's prediction came true -- McAdoo, one of the state's top defensive line recruits, will play at UNC next year. (Durham Herald-Sun)
