UNC Lands 2012 Forward Brice Johnson
Posted Oct 26, 2011
For a long stretch, UNC was struggling to add big men to is 2012 recruiting class. Those problems are clearly in the past. Just a few weeks after getting a commitment from center Joel James, the Tar Heels have landed high-flying forward Brice Johnson. Johnson, ranked No. 23 in the Class of 2012 by ACCSports.com recruiting analyst Brick Oettinger, announced his school choice on Wednesday morning, via Twitter. “I will be a UNC Tar Heel,” Johnson tweeted.
