The 2022 recruiting class is full of talented running backs throughout North Carolina and Virginia, and UNC finally added one of their main targets. On Thursday, four-star running back Omarion Hampton became the third in-state recruit to commit to the Heels for the 2022 season. The announcement came during a ceremony broadcast by CBS Sports HQ.
As we’ll continue to mention, recruiting rankings and evaluations are still impacted by COVID-induced delays. That hasn’t stopped the main recruiting services from largely agreeing on Hampton’s potential at the next level. As with most recruits since Mack Brown arrived, Hampton is another major addition to the Tar Heel program.
