I always enjoy putting together mock recruiting classes -- even as an analyst (I'll never grow up).
This is, I believe, a very plausible scenario for UNC. Obviously it won't work out exactly this way, but I think UNC is on the short list for all of these guys, and they definitely lead for some of them. In some cases the substitutes you could reasonably name are just as highly ranked, or almost so.
QB Chazz Surratt ****
RB Jordon Brown ****
RB Robert Washington ****
WR Diondre Overton NR
WR Kyran Bowman ***
WR Divine Deablo ***
TE Garrett Walstron NR
OT Josh Ball ****
OL Luke Elder ***
OL Tyler Pritchett ***
DE Nick Coe ****
DE Kyree Campbell ****
DE/OLB Jimmie Taylor ***
DT Ellison Jordan ****
DT Christian Colon ***
LB Jaquan Yulee ****
LB Julian Okwara ***
CB Tre Jackson ***
DB Javontay Smith ***
S Isaiah Stallings ***
S James Pierre
Variables: DT Dexter Lawrence, LB Keion Joyner.
Just take the guys in the mock. That would be eight four-stars. Very likely a Top 20 class.
