This is an outstanding piece. Sammy is one of the best in our state.

That is a good article. It should help people frame how much we have been missing.

Some really good players are coming out of Carolina...like Florida has been cherry picked for years, it seems that some out of state programs are coming in to North Carolina to cherry pick and meet roster needs.

If you watch FSU play this year...you'll see NC guys in the two deep...OL Landon Dickerson, LB Josh Brown, Safety Hamsah Nasrildeen, and a DT back up in Arthur Williams.

I'll be watching WVU and their North Carolina QB, Will Grier, to see if they can finally challenge for the Big 12 championship.

I have been maintaining that if UNC can keep more of these guys at home, the athletes are there to be a prominent football program.

A good start would be walling off NCSU on some of that talent

Unless we can start landing a large number of out of state 4* recruits, that is a necessity - unless we are happy with up and down mediocrity.
