Heels continue to reel in key in-state football commitments


The UNC football program added two more in-state football recruits from the class of 2009 last week. Defensive end of Jacksonville Northside and offensive tackle of East Forsyth picked the Tar Heels. The verbal commitments, as always, are not binding on the school or player. Players may sign official national letters in February 2009. UNC leads the ACC with 10 commitments, including seven from in-state players. (Raleigh News & Observer)
