The UNC men’s basketball program officially announced the signing of all four of its incoming transfers on Wednesday: Cormac Ryan from Notre Dame, Jae’Lyn Withers from Louisville, Paxson Wojcik from Brown and Harrison Ingram from Stanford. Now that the quartet are officially Tar Heels, head coach Hubert Davis shared his brief thoughts about each one.
Take a look at what Davis had to say:
On Cormac Ryan: “Cormac is an accomplished college basketball player who has consistently performed at the highest level on the biggest stages. He’s a great shooter, defender, leader and fierce competitor every time he steps on the floor. We are thrilled to have him here at UNC.”
On Jae’Lyn Withers: “Jae’Lyn is a versatile big man who can do a number of things really well on both ends of the court. He can consistently make three-pointers, run the floor, post up, attack the offense and create plays off the bounce. He is also an excellent defender and rebounder, exactly what we were looking for at that position. He is a North Carolina kid and we are glad he is back home.”
On Harrison Ingram: “I love Harrison’s elite versatility on both ends of the floor. He’s a great passer, playmaker and scorer with size. He is a great leader and teammate who has a burning desire to win. We initially recruited him in high school and are glad he’s a Tar Heel.”
On Paxson Wojcik: “Paxson is a talented basketball player who excels at doing everything on the court at a high level. He brings consistent perimeter shooting, rebounding and passing from the wing. He will be a great leader for us. We are excited to have Paxson as part of the Carolina Basketball family.”
