UNC Football: Rapid Reaction to Zamir White decision

Always a bridesmaid and never a bride.

At least, that’s what it feels like for some North Carolina football fans when it comes to five-star prospects and the program’s ability to reel in top talent.

Again on Tuesday afternoon, the Tar Heels came up short with a big-time recruit when five-star running back Zamir White committed to the Georgia Bulldogs.

Despite how well the Tar Heels have been doing on the recruiting trail, their luck with five-star recruits is still, well, bad at best.

Bad, to the point that many North Carolina fans are less than surprised by the latest missed prospect that chose Georgia, or any other SEC powerhouse, over the Tar Heels.
