Posted Feb 2, 2009
For the first time since 2002, when Rivals.com began national team rankings for college football recruiting, the Tar Heels signed three of the top four ranked prospects from the state of North Carolina—-Donte Moss of Jacksonville (No. 1), Jheranie Boyd of Gastonia (No. 3), and Jared McAdoo of Chapel Hill (No. 4). It’s the first time since 2003 that UNC landed even two the state’s top four prospects.
