UNC Recruiting Week in Review
Actually, this recruiting "Week in Review" will cover the past two weeks so we can get back up to speed. Here goes...
Basketball
Roy Williams offered a scholarship to 2014 SF
Justin Jackson, a consensus 5-star talent from Spring, TX. Jackson is the sixth member of the
2014 recruiting class to receive an offer.
One member of the 2014 class who has yet to receive an offer, but is garnering a lot of attention is power forward
Isaac Copeland. Copeland visited UNC on Thursday and reportedly
had a "good visit".
Several other basketball recruits who hold offers from UNC have recently taken visits to other schools: 2013 PF
Julius Randle visited Oklahoma State on Saturday, 2014 SF
Justise Winslow visited Stanford on August 10th, and 2013 SF
Troy Williams visited Alabama last week.
2013 SG
Wayne Selden has
trimmed his list to six schools and eliminated UNC.
Meanwhile, 2013 center
Kennedy Meeks says that NC State, Georgetown, and Louisville are currently
recruiting him the hardest.
And in case you were wondering, it turns out that 6-foot-1 2013 UNC point guard commit
Nate Britt can indeed dunk the basketball. It wasn't
on the level of what incoming freshman
J.P. Tokoto can do, but he got it down.

Football
Friday was opening night for high school football in North Carolina. UNC WR commit
Jordan Fieulleteau caught 8 passes for 110 yards, including a 38-yard touchdown, while RB
Khris Francis rushed for 108 yards and two touchdowns.
Here's how more of the current commits fared.
Ryan Switzer, a 2013 UNC receiver commit, was invited to play in the
Semper Fi All-American Bowl in San Diego on January 4th.
2014 offensive lineman
Trip McNeill was
pleasantly "shocked" by his UNC visit on Thursday, August 9th. He received a scholarship offer during his visit.
2013 offensive guard
Dorian Miller visited UNC the following day and said
he was treated well.
Apparently UNC really wants to add another offensive lineman to
the 2013 class. The coaching staff reportedly sent 2013 lineman (and Georgia commit) Brandon Kublanow
20 handwritten letters recently.
