Overall Impressions With The UNC Class
For all intents and purposes, and barring some VAST unforeseen circumstance, the UNC class is largely complete. Here's a recap of all the players who committed:
DL Quinton Alton
OL Nick Appel
RB Giovanni Bernard
OL Russell Bodine
DB Tre Boston
DB D.J. Bunn
LB P.J. Clyburn
ATH Ethan Farmer
WR Brenden Felder
TE Sean Fitzpatrick
DT Carlos Gray
OT James Hurst
DE Tim Jackson
OT T.J. Leifheit
LB Ty Linton
LB Darius Lipford
DE Kareem Martin
DB Jabari Price
WR Sean Tapley
WR Reggie Wilkins
DT Brandon Willis
Right now, without any further commitments, the way this class will be ranked is fairly positive. 31st nationally by Scout.com, 30th nationally by Rivals.com, and 25th nationally by ESPN.com. The Heels addressed major needs along both the offensive and defensive lines, signing 10 total linemen in this class. Linebacker, defensive back, and wide receiver were also thoroughly and adequately addressed, with three prospects each at those positions. The class was filled out by two additional offensive threats, one at TE (Fitzpatrick) and one at RB (Bernard).
This class has the potential to be a very good one before they graduate from UNC. Many of these players have been described as "home run hitters," or guys who can make big plays from wherever they are on the field. Having guys like that in a class gives it an extra edge, and the possibility to be a very special part of the program.
Congratulations to all of these players on fantastic high school careers, and from one former Tar Heel, I wish all of them nothing but the best as they continue their careers at the University of North Carolina.
