After rallying in the months of April and May to sign one of the nation’s 10 best recruiting hauls, Roy Williams and the North Carolina Tar Heels hoped to add one final piece to their incoming freshman class.
Unfortunately, for Williams, the Tar Heels and UNC fans, alike, it probably won’t happen.
They missed on 5-star combo guard R.J. Hampton — who they were supposedly in the running for — but then so did every other program, including Kansas, who was considered the heavy favorite to land his commitment before he spurned college hoops for a year of professional basketball overseas.
