Most of them were plants who'd already committed, picked up a couple of lower ranked guys on the spot I think who stuck. The only one I remember decommitting was that safety who ended up jumping to you guys. In fact I'm pretty sure that interaction when he committed (his name escapes me) after his teammate pulled the trigger was the inspiration for Larry's big "who's coming with" spiels at the ends of these camps.
4 star safety Dontavius Nash becomes our first '21 commit also some dude's saying we landed a big time DL so fingers crossed happy Saturday everybody
Commitment from my HS Alma mater. His dad (former unc scholarship punter) was my position coach in HS and his uncle was our QB who walked on at Tennessee and eventually at Carolina as well. Had no idea kid was a D1 talent. Interested to see what position he ends up at.
gonna miss him at unc and can't wait for him to kill it in the nba https://www.theplayerstribune.com/en-us/articles/coby-white-nba-draft
Pretty sure Ronnie Harrison was another who didn’t stick. Committed to us early at one of these and then went to Bama.
I think he was one of those plants though that had already committed to the staff, I'm guessing we maybe had just one or two guys legitimately jump up and commit on the spot during Larry's end of camp spiel
yeah Coby's gonna be my latest Heel I follow closely in the league, it's been a while think the last guy I did that with was Lawson
Was Roy not at the draft last night? I didn't see him but I also kept the draft largely as background noise and wasn't paying close attention
He wasn't there Oh btw Puff is in town with Cam playing pick up this weekend and apparently he's considering reclassifying to '19 aka the class that will never die
they're currently putting down the argyle down the sidelines according to the latest pic from brew. big fan of this look
yeah I was iffy on the look of field turf before realizing how much better it had gotten in recent years, that looks incredible
More and more pundits are jumping on the Myles Murphy to UNC train as his Monday announcement approaches Happy 4th nerdboys
twitter appears to be down right now so if you can't see it: the wofford game this year will be played at carmichael instead of the dome. ticket details early october. come get some Paddy Murphy
roster is out boys only surprise is no devon lawrence who apparently has failed out of school. someone on ic said he had a gf a year older than him in hs and she would do all his homework so once she graduated he was destined to fail. i like that anecdote both lines are lighter as opposed to last year. turay gained like 45 pounds which is neat
as usual the geniuses at IC had no clue lawrence is still enrolled but he is no longer with the team and plans to transfer. guess he had no interest in a position change and no path to playing time this year at rb without numerous injuries
some bullet points about the team heading into camp from Mack yesterday: *The biggest decision we have to make in the next month and a half is who starts at quarterback against South Carolina. *Thinks all three backs are really good. Suggests Javonte Williams could be “a superstar.” *Offensive line needs to get tougher. *Tight ends will be a strength. *Wide receivers can be a strength, but that group is not there yet. Dazz Newsome is really good, but in general too many drops and some concern about an ability to create space. *Defensive line starters are good, but no depth. *Linebackers are all over the place. Gemmel is solid but needs to get stronger. Dom Ross is a good pass rusher but needs to get better in space. *Need to figure out who the corner will be opposite of Patrice Rene, who is playing really well. *Thinks safety will be good with Myles Dorn and Myles Wolfolk. *Then you’ve got a brand-new kicking game group.
feel like "offensive line needs to get tougher" has been UNC offense in a nutshell, at least in most of the recent years love seeing that about Javonte, opposite of love regarding the receivers
oh yeah we offered patrick baldwin, dj steward and rj davis caleb love's family apparently wants him at unc. cade cunningham is likely okie state but we're right in it with him regardless there are not a lot of elite guards in this class. gonna need to close on love and davis and shoot for the moon with cade
I'm sticking with my Fortin prediction for game 1, seems like "people in the know" have been saying Howell from speaking with random players Been on the Javonte train since seeing his hs video, think he is the closest thing we've got to a complete package back there, but yeah largely unproven still. Like he said though I think all 3 will be good. Not too concerned about the receivers' inability to create space as it's a teachable skill and we have the athletes, plus this system helps a ton there. Drops are a much tougher fix. Also pumped to see Chazz, never understood why he got the soft label on ic as he always seemed to seek out contact on the run, which I wasn't the biggest fan of tbh. The guy took a beating behind that OL two years ago and his only showing last year was against a Miami team that lived in our backfield. Fox's new role seems tailor made for him. Hopefully the light finally comes on for Dorn, I take it as a good sign that he represented us in Charlotte yesterday.
i think the chazz is soft label came from his dainty hands and how he would just drop the ball while dropping back like in the VT massacre
also that Dominique Ross line makes perfect sense as I remember thinking he looked incredible early in the season attacking the backfield, but literally can't remember him even being on the field any other time
Sounds like DB Kyler McMichael will be transferring in from Clemson, announcing today at 1 really digging this DB transfer pipeline for former elite recruits we seem to have going on
I don't see how a guy getting kicked out of school during the previous regime's reign is relevant here Ark but sure why not, that was pretty annoying
Mack over here stealing Clemson players from Dabo Rip tigers it was a good run, be gentle when you take over plz
some even nicer fella gave georgia T a first place vote. an even nicer pair gave cuse two first place votes lots of nice guys and gals out there
