UNC reloads by signing four top hoop prospects
Posted Nov 11, 2011
On the day before his current team begins its quest for this year’s national title, North Carolina basketball coach Roy Williams took a step toward keeping the Tar Heels in the championship picture well into the future by signing four top recruits. Center Joel James, forwards Brice Johnson and J.P. Tokoto, and point guard Marcus Paige, all of whom had previously committed to the Tar Heels, all signed their NCAA letters of intent Thursday. The highly ranked class will begin playing at UNC next season.
