UNC football recruiting: OT William Barnes includes North Carolina in top 7
Posted Aug 2, 2017
The Tar Heels have much of their 2018 football recruiting class settled, though athletes up and down the east coast continue to consider UNC. One such player is four-star offensive tackle William Barnes, who recently named the Tar Heels in his top seven schools. The six other programs that made the cut include Florida, Florida State, Ohio State, Alabama, Auburn, and Georgia.
