UNC, NC State, Duke fight border battle in football recruiting
Posted Feb 7, 2016
This really is no secret. For Duke, North Carolina and N.C. State to elevate their respective football programs to a nationally elite level, they need to begin closing down the state’s borders in recruiting. Wednesday’s national signing day was another in both futility and frustration for area programs in their attempts to keep the state’s top in-state talent home. Once again, Clemson and SEC programs raided the state.
