N.C. ACC schools getting early recruiting jump
Posted Jun 4, 2011
The Tar Heels tapped Harrison Barnes' home state of Iowa again for their point guard of the future in 6-0 Marcus Paige. Wing J.P. Tokoto of Wisconsin adds athletic ability at 6-6 and can rebound and defend while playing in a team-first framework. Getting a big guy is essential. Center Tyler Zeller will leave after next season, and forwards Barnes and John Henson may be gone, too. Kaleb Tarczewski, a 7-footer from Massachusetts, could fill Zeller's role.
