UNC's 2016 football recruiting class coming together

Posted Oct 13, 2015
With two flips in six days, UNC has now landed 19 recruits for the 2016 recruiting class. More impressive is the fact that the Tar Heels were able to flip highly targeted tight end Garrett Walston from Georgia of the SEC and James Pierre, a South Florida prospect, from the Miami Hurricanes. Walston provides UNC with a big pass-catching option, something UNC needs given the height of their wide receiver commits in this class. (Carolina Blue)
