UNC football continues to make recruiting inroads in Northern Virginia, Maryland under Larry Fedora

Posted Feb 4, 2016
In Fedora’s four recruiting classes since he took over in Chapel Hill in 2012, North Carolina has signed 10 Washington, D.C. area players. Virginia and Virginia Tech, which have long tapped Northern Virginia for talent, each have 11 signees in that span. The trend began in 2014, when four local standouts pledged to join the Tar Heels, led by All-Met defensive back M.J. Stewart (Yorktown) and All-Met quarterback Caleb Henderson (Lake Braddock).
