Football recruiting has changed over the years

Tommy Thigpen is another former Division I football player with a new perspective on recruiting. Coming out of Potomac as an All-American linebacker in 1989, Thigpen played for UNC. Now Thigpen is a linebackers coach for the Tar Heels and was named one of the Top 25 recruiters in the country (No. 1 in the ACC) by Rivals.com last year. Even just nine years ago expectations for recruits were very different from today. (Potomac News Online)

  • Excellent and comprehensive addition to the Heels' NetWorld Offerings. Really appreciated by one such as me who lives beyond the "info line" here in the Charleston area, we get drips and dribbles but you give us the big, complete overview. Greatly appreciated. A must-be Bookmarked! Thank you.

  • The accumulation of stories involving the Heels is better than getting a Google alert. I check the site every day.

  • It's the BEST, most comprehensive place to gather info about the Tar Heels. I love it!!
