NLI ALERT: Brandon Felder, Wide Receiver

The Heels are into double digits with their NLIs, and have five just in the last half an hour. The most recent one is Brandon Felder, a 5'10 wide receiver from Gateway High School in Monroeville, Pennsylvania.

The story with Felder can be summed up in one word: speed, speed, speed. Clocked at 4.37 in the 40-yard dash, Felder is perfect for the slot receiver role that John Shoop loves to throw to in his offense. Felder is also a prime candidate to start from day one as a kick and punt returner, somewhere the Heels desperately need big plays from after losing Brandon Tate to the NFL prior to last season.

Felder committed early on in the process, and never wavered despite interest from Boston College and a late push by Notre Dame. “I’ve been solid with North Carolina throughout the whole process,” Felder said. “I just have that relationship with them and no one can ever change that… A lot of schools have contacted Coach Terry [Smith], but he’s been helping me out with [informing them I’m firm].”

So again, that's 10 NLIs all together for the Heels already this morning. Great start to the day so far, but not a lot of surprises, positive or negative. We'll definitely see if that changes, and keep it on H2TheBSOfA for immediate coverage.
