UNC Football: Tar Heels currently hold Top 20 recruiting class

There is still a lot of excitement surrounding the North Carolina Tar Heels football program as they head into Saturday’s game vs. the Virginia Tech Hokies on the road. With a share of first place in the Atlantic Coast Conference Coastal Division, the Tar Heels are on track for a bowl game and potentially a spot in the conference title game.

But the biggest news surrounding the program didn’t happen on the field this weekend.

Instead, that news was the commitment of five-star defensive end Desmond Evans who pledged his verbal to the Tar Heels on Friday afternoon.
