UNC's run on in-state football talent picks up steam with Class of 2021
Posted May 8, 2020
UNC Football carried its recruiting momentum into the class of 2020, landing numerous strong recruits from inside the state lines. Most notably, UNC reeled in 5-star defensive end Desmond Evans from Lee County. The Tar Heels’ 2020 class came in as the 19th best in the country. With the 2021 recruiting class, Mack Brown is putting together his magnum opus.
