UNC all in for a Woods, Smith 2016 backcourt?

Posted Jul 14, 2014
There is no reason why North Carolina would not go all in on recruiting both five-stars Dennis Smith and Seventh Woods to play together in the same backcourt. Smith is from Fayetteville (NC) while Woods resides in Columbia (SC). Both players can play point guard, but in this scenario Smith would get more time at the point with Woods at the off guard or shooting guard position. Smith and Woods are friendly with each other and communicate regularly. Smith has picked up many offers over the spring and summer including Duke, Kansas, Wake Forest, Florida, Miami, N.C. State, and North Carolina. (Carolina Blue)
