- UNC extends offer to Class of 2028 quarterback
With the offseason arrival of Bill Belichick as UNC's next head football coach, football recruits – both in the transfer portal and those still in high school – are taking notice of Chapel Hill.
North Carolina shaped its 2025 roster primarily through the portal, adding the likes of top-ranked transfers Thaddeus Dixon and Gio Lopez . The Tar Heels also solidified their 2025 recruiting class with commitments from a pair of 4-stars: in-state quarterback Bryce Baker and South Carolina running back Jaylen McGrill.

UNC's 2026 recruiting class is amongst the country's best , improving furthermore by re-securing a commitment from 4-star, in-state edge rusher Zavion Griffin-Haynes. North Carolina has just one commitment in its 2027 recruiting class, Gardena (Calif.) athlete Skylar Robinson , but these guys are still two high school seasons away from graduating.
Just under three months from the start of their 2025 season , the Tar Heels got a major jumpstart into another one of their future recruiting classes, offering Class of 2028 quarterback Hudson West.
As you'll see in West's above tweet, he was named MVP of the Bill Belichick Football Camp on June 8. West still has three varsity seasons to play, but his impression was strong enough to warrant an offer.

West will enter his second season at Sarasota High School (Fla.) this fall, where he likely keeps the starting quarterback gig. If you look at the pinned tweet on West's X account , he started as a freshman on varsity, another major honor college coaches will certainly take notice of.
UNC's upcoming recruiting classes will likely be shaped by their on-field performance, as Belichick brings a championship background that college football in Chapel Hill sorely lacks. There's a ton of offseason hype surrounding North Carolina, but can players and coaches turn that hype into victories?
