As the countdown to Michael Malone's first season as head coach rolls on, the future of North Carolina's program is in recruiting classes. After Malone and the staff were able to land a few recruits in the 2026 class as well as the transfer portal, they are off to a good start.
But the 2027 and 2028 classes will be very important.
In 2027, North Carolina has offers out to a lot of prospects as they are in pursuit of some big names. One of them is Florida native C.J. Rosser. The power forward is being highly recruited by several programs including North Carolina who is staying in contact with him as he tells Krysten Peek.
"It's going pretty good, just taking it one day at a time," Rosser told Peek. "Like UNC, Arkansas, Alabama, Kentucky, Louisville. Really just the big ones. NC State. Just staying in touch."
Rosser also stated that he will wait until August to really get things going in his recruitment. While there's a long way to go in his recruitment, it's good news to hear that UNC is still involved with him.
The 6-foot-10, 195-pound forward is ranked No. 3 nationally, No. 2 power forward and the No. 2 player in the state of Florida per the 247Sports recruiting rankings. He has a total of 17 offers in his recruitment so far, including from UNC.
