The North Carolina football program received its 19th commitment from a class of 2020 prospect on Wednesday night when 3-star defensive lineman Kaimon Rucker gave his verbal pledge to head coach Mack Brown and the Tar Heels.
His commitment to North Carolina came just a week after attending the Tar Heels’ Showtime Camp in Chapel Hill where he received the offer from Brown and the UNC coaching staff. A 6-foot-2, 248-pound defensive end, Rucker had better than 25 scholarship offers including ones from Louisville, Navy and South Florida.
Rucker’s pledge to the Tar Heels gives North Carolina its third commitment on the defensive line in less than two weeks.
