UNC gets commitment from Jacksonville star

Posted Jul 29, 2005

North Carolina landed another of the state's top high-school football prospects last night when it received a commitment from Deunta Williams, a 6-3, 195-pound multi-position player from Jacksonville. Williams is a senior at White Oak High School, where he made his announcement at a sports banquet. He was leaning toward N.C. State after colleges started recruiting him, but a change in the Wolfpack coaching staff helped him decide on North Carolina. (Winston-Salem Journal)
