2022 Recruiting Thread

[ProfessorOwl]

Seems like there is a lot of discussion about potential 2022 recruits so I figured I'd make the thread. Since the 2021 class is still mostly unfinished, our needs for 2022 are pretty opaque. It will probably include a point guard and a big or two. As far as the local NC class looks, it doesn't seem to have many elite players now that Bradley is playing in Florida. That said, I'm partial to Brandon White from Spencer, NC. There's also Jarace Walker, an SF from IMG who seems to be a fan of Carolina.

The depth chart for 2022 is as follows
PG: Davis (Jr )
SG: Harris (R.Jr), Dunn (Soph)
SF: Walton (Jr) Johnson (Jr)
PF: Styles (Soph)
C: TBD

Recruits UNC has offered:
Clark - CG, potentially 2021
Bradley - PG
Mitchell - SF
Anderson - C

We have been after of few of those kids more than the remaining '21"s.
Walker was a younger kid that caught Roy's eye when he was down to see Armando at IMG.

On the '22's, Clark my go anytime. Likes us.
Bradley is another I like but staff has been on Mitchell and have recently offered the big from AZ, like him too but those west coast kids often stay there.

Jarace Walker offered. Potentially significant, since he seems to be a big UNC fan.

Bout damn time.

 

[Tom79]

Walker and Bradley would be a nice combo to get out of IMG.

Bout damn time.

Sadly, our record with kids who say that UNC is their dream school is, well, bad.

More info on Brandon White

At a rapid-fire rate, North Carolina and your recruitment, go.

“Top of my list, Coach Robinson, that’s my guy.”

Seems like he's ours if we want him. Obviously a lot will change with our big man situation between now and 2022. I suspect this is a guy that will rise significantly over the next year.

How do yall feel about Eric Dailey Jr?

As much as I like the kid and his love for UNC, in the NCAA he just cannot DUNK everything.

You are spot on with this one.

 

[NBBears20124ACHAMPS]

Tar Heels offered SG Nick Smith Jr out of Arkansas.

 

[RoseHeel]

Very good offers in the 2022 class so far IMO. Lot of guys we had early momentum with as well as a few guys in/from our backyard. And so far none of those Dook/UK longshots Roy tends to love.

[What Would Jesus Do?]

The depth chart for 2022 is as follows
PG: Davis (Jr )
SG: Harris (R.Jr), Dunn (Soph)
SF: Walton (Jr) Johnson (Jr)
PF: Styles (Soph)
C: TBD

We could still have Black and Manley, couldn't we? If so, I assume Leaky starts. As for Manley, who knows?

I like Walton in the back court.

Can either Harris or Walton play backup PG?

I'm expecting RJ to be a 4 or 5 year player - mainly due to his size - and to start getting seriously good next year. If so, we don't necessarily need a 5-star PG right away. Then again, we should probably have some on our list, just in case.

Think state was the leader before UNC offered.

Bossi gave his crystal ball for De'Ante Green to the good guys

 

[bobcrane14]

I watched some YouTube highlights of Green. He looks like a mid major prospect. He seemed to have something to say to his opponents after made baskets rather than sprinting back on defense. I find it impossible to believe that he is the best prospect in North Carolina

Roy will correct that bad habit I'm sure sir.

Best prospects in NC https://phenomhoopreport.com/rankings/2022-north-carolina/ .... You have to watch more than highlights to see how good someone is. He actually had a solid summer and this summer would be a better gauge of how good he really is if they are able to play in the EYBL. Compared to previous NC classes I do think the 2022 is a down class but keep in mind 3 of the best players in the Nation left for IMG, Montrverde and Oak Hill. I think if we do get Green by year 3 and 4 he could be pretty good he is already a pretty good stretch 4. Haven't seen to many of the other PF in the country but the 2 that Rivals have ranked in front of him from NC Green is better than them both.
