RB Mike Hilton committed to Ole Miss but will visit UNC

Posted Jan 12, 2012
One of Georgia’s top running backs remains committed to Ole Miss but will visit North Carolina this weekend. Mike Hilton, a 5-foot-9, 180-pounder from Sandy Creek High School, committed last summer to Ole Miss, which recently changed coaches. North Carolina contacted him this week about visiting. “I took an official visit in October to Southern Miss, and now those coaches are at North Carolina,” Hilton told the AJC. “They called me and asked to visit. As of right now, North Carolina has not offered." (Atlanta Journal-Constitution)
