Jay Bateman Excited About UNC's Strong 2022 Football Recruiting Class
Posted Dec 22, 2021
As Phil Longo is thrilled with the offensive players UNC signed last week in its 2022 recruiting class, so is defensive coordinator Jay Bateman. His side of the ball landed a 5-star recruit in defensive tackle Travis Shaw, along with six 4-star recruits. Raleigh defensive end Beau Atkinson drew considerable praise as did Shelby linebacker Malaki Hamrick.
