Quarterback Patton Robinette committed to North Carolina on Wednesday, according to Jamie Newberg of ESPN Recruiting. Robinette chose UNC over Northwestern, Vanderbilt, Purdue and others. He threw for more than 1,800 yards, 21 touchdowns and ran for 11 more. "I just had a really strong feeling about North Carolina," said Robinette. "Their academics and tradition are incredible and I love the community. Coach [Butch] Davis, coach [John] Shoop and the other coaches there are all outstanding coaches and guys. Really, it's the best fit for me." (ESPN.com)
