South Central forward Day’Ron Sharpe (6-9, 220) committed to his dream school Sunday, verbally committing to UNC. Sharpe is the first Roy Williams commit in the class of 2020. In his sophomore season, Sharpe averaged 14.3 points per game and 9.3 rebounds. He also had offers from Virginia, East Carolina and Georgetown. But the big man grew up a Carolina fan.
