When the North Carolina Tar Heels host Virginia in a huge Atlantic Coast Conference showdown on Saturday night, they will have a special guest in attendance.
The Tar Heels will host five-star outside linebacker Trenton Simpson on his official visit this weekend when they take on the Cavaliers. Simpson re-opened his recruitment after de-committing from Auburn earlier in the month.
He made the announcement to take his official earlier on Wednesday morning:
The Charlotte product plays his high school football at Mallard Creek and picked the Tigers over the Tar Heels in the Summer. But after visits to other schools, including a few to UNC’s campus, Simpson decided that he would re-open that recruitment.
