North Carolina’s football and basketball programs are after in-state prospect Kendre Harrison, offering the talented recruit last year.
Although Mack Brown and the football program extended an offer first, the basketball program also offered in June. Harrison has expressed interest in playing both sports in college and North Carolina hopes to land top talent.
On Friday, Harrison announced he will narrow his list of offers to six on June 15 with a social media post. In the post, Harrison included the logos of AlabamaUNC, Georgia, Oregon, Auburn, LSU, Ohio State, Oklahoma, State of Florida, Tennessee, USC, Notre Dame, Florida, Penn State and Ole Miss.
All are football programs that offered him.
The 6-foot-2, 243-pound Reidsville native is ranked as the No. 6 player nationally, the No. 1 tight end and the No. 2 player in the state of North Carolina, according to the 247Sports Football Recruiting Rankings. He is also one of the best recruits in basketball, ranking #31 nationally.
North Carolina has been searching for this talented two-star athlete for months and should see its program among the final six. Harrison has made several visits to campus, including one a few weeks ago.
But they will certainly face some tough competition from some top-tier football programs.
