The UNC football program has put an emphasis on recruiting help on the defensive front, as it has now extended offers to 12 players who classify as defensive linemen or edge rushers. Three of the four edge rushers who have received offers from the UNC football program (including Griffin Haynes) reside in North Carolina.
There is plenty of time left in the recruitment process for this respective class, but the Tar Heels are wasting no time trying to convince the state’s top products to stay home and compete at the college level in Chapel Hill.
