Tar Heels nab three highly touted players in recruiting haul

Posted Feb 2, 2011
Class Jewel: Make that jewels. Barring injury, Landon Turner at offensive guard, offensive guard Jarrod James and linebacker Travis Hughes are sure-fire college all stars and future NFL draft picks. All three are ranked among the nation's top 10 prospects at their positions by both Rivals.com and Scout.com. UNC took Hughes and Turner from under the noses of their home-state schools, Virginia and Virginia Tech. James is a North Carolina product who grew up a Tar Heel fan. (Fayetteville Observer)
