Top-rated Ohio recruit Jeremiah Francis explains decision to commit to UNC

Posted Aug 16, 2017
Jeremiah Francis told Eleven Warriors that his decision to commit to the Tar Heels over the Buckeyes came down to the level of competition and the head coach. "Coach (Roy) Williams, 800-plus wins, multiple Final Fours and a lot of lottery picks and I want to be one of them. To play in the ACC, one of the best conferences in the country. And again, Coach Williams. I couldn't say 'no' to that." (Eleven Warriors)
