Posted Jun 4, 2019
A few days after Malik Hornsby’s official visit, the Houston-area quarterback committed to the Tar Heels. He instantly became the crown jewel of what is currently a top 10 class. Hornsby, who ranks as the No. 83 recruit in the Top247, picked UNC over Texas A&M, Florida State and Alabama. “The reason why I chose UNC is really Mack Brown,” Hornsby said. (247 Sports)
