Worth the wait: Dwight Jones has his moment

Posted Oct 3, 2010
North Carolina’s Dwight Jones said that before every game, his 3-year old son Cam’ron asks him a simple question. “He says’ Dada, you going to score a touchdown?’” Jones said. “I always say ‘yeah.’” As he trotted of the field, helmet in hand, after his first college touchdown Saturday against East Carolina, the former Cummings High School standout was well aware of the value of delivering on that promise.
