Roy Williams watches Antonio Blakeney
Posted Dec 2, 2013
Roy Williams spent Friday and Saturday on the recruiting trail, taking in 2014 UNC point guard commit Joel Berry's game on Friday and spending Saturday watching 2015 4-star shooting guard Antonio Blakeney.
Williams was among several prominent coaches on hand, according to Scout.com recruiting analyst Evan Daniels, via Twitter.
"Rick Pitino, Roy Williams, Billy Donovan, Donnie Jones, Travis Ford & Leonard Hamilton watched Antonio Blakeney on Saturday, per Blakeney."
Blakeney is one of three shooting guards on UNC's 2015 basketball recruiting board, joining Malik Newman and Luke Kennard. It's unclear if Blakeney currently holds a UNC offer. ESPN and 247 Sports both list Blakeney with an offer, while Rivals and Scout do not.
Adam Zagoria of Zag's Blog also lists UNC among schools on Blakeney's offer list, which includes Kansas, Florida, Florida State, and Louisville, among numerous others.
