It’s finally official. Cole Anthony, the nation’s top combo guard and consensus top-5 recruit, will be a North Carolina Tar Heel. Anthony made the announcement this morning with Mike Greenberg on ESPN’s morning show “Get Up”. The announcement ended months of speculation about his college destination. The commitment is a huge boon to the Tar Heel staff who desperately needed some good news on the recruiting trail.
Anthony’s affinity for the Heels hasn’t been much of a secret. He has visited UNC at least five times over the last 12 months, most recently attending the Senior Night win over Duke.
