Aleric Mullins caps Heels' 'best recruiting class'
Posted Feb 2, 2006
John Bunting already considered his day a success. Aleric Mullins provided the perfect cap to it -- by putting on the perfect cap. In Bunting's eyes, anyway. Mullins, the No. 2 player in the state according to SuperPrep, announced on ESPNU on Wednesday afternoon that he will play his college football at North Carolina. He was the 28th and final player to sign with UNC on the first day of the national signing period.
