Recruiting: UNC's ongoing struggles; basketball windfall coming to ACC

Posted Sep 25, 2015
UNC coach Roy Williams has been open about his struggles to get recruits on campus – and to commit to UNC in light of the ongoing NCAA investigation into academic fraud. Robinson isn’t the only visit UNC has scheduled for this fall. According to Inside Carolina, the Tar Heels are also bringing in shooting guard Seventh Woods (No. 34 scout, No. 53 ESPN) and Finland's Lauri Markannen, but it’s worth noting that none of those players are ranked in the top 30 of the class of 2016.
