Dan Mastromatteo weathers ups and downs of recruiting
Posted Feb 1, 2012
Dan Mastromatteo hasn't played a down of football for the University of North Carolina. But the Holy Spirit High School senior has already had three college head coaches. Mastromatteo, one of the state's top linebackers, will sign a national letter of intent to become a Tar Heel today. Mastromatteo's recruiting journey illustrates the often topsy-turvy world of big-time college football and the challenges recruits face.
