The North Carolina Tar Heels got a verbal commitment from 4-star class of 2020 prospect Malik Hornsby on Wednesday night. His commitment to UNC comes just a month after officially visiting the school for the Tar Heels’ spring game.
Hornsby’s pledge marks the fifth 4-star commitment for North Carolina in next year’s recruiting cycle, helping the Tar Heels to an early top-10 ranking in the 247Sports 2020 team rankings. He joins safety Cameron Roseman-Sinclair, wide receivers Josh Downs and Ray Grier and inside linebacker Ethan West as 4-star recruits in the Tar Heels’ 2020 class.
The 6-foot-2, 175-pound dual threat quarterback out of Fort Bend Marshall High School in Missouri City, Texas is ranked No.
