Posted Feb 11, 2016
Early Thursday evening, class of 2017 defensive lineman Jordon Riley committed to North Carolina. He becomes the sixth pledge for the Tar Heels this cycle and the fifth in-state commit. "Riley is a big, strong defensive lineman with great length at 6-foot-6. He plays with aggression in the trenches and fights through contact at the line of scrimmage to penetrate the backfield."
