2015 Football Recruiting Flips Fill UNC's Needs
Posted Jan 22, 2015
In one week UNC was able to flip two 2015 recruits to the Tar Heels and in the process fill two areas of need. Coming off official visits to North Carolina, tight end Jake Bargas (Boca Raton, FL) and safety Prentice McKinney (Dallas, TX) both became Tar Heels shortly after returning home. Bargas, who was committed to Wake Forest, de-committed from the Demon Deacons on Sunday night before committing to the Tar Heels Monday evening. McKinney flipped from Notre Dame on Wednesday night.
