Top 25 Football Recruiting Classes: North Carolina Tar Heels
Posted Feb 23, 2009
The two clear areas of focus for the Heels' staff were defensive back and wide receiver. Jheranie Boyd and Josh Adams form as solid a wide receiver (recruit) duo as any school in the ACC. With potential for a few of the 'athletes' to end up as pass catchers, this receiver class should do a perfect job of filling needs. With Brooks Foster, Brandon Tate and Hakeem Nicks all leaving campus, it was important to add depth to the receiving corp. With four to potentially seven wideouts in the class, Davis did just that.
