If you pay them they will come.

Probably so but UNC has been very good at visiting smaller schools with new arenas so maybe they just have a kind heart. They opened WC, UNCA and UNCW that come to mind. I remember 30 years ago Kansas opened the WCU arena.

Yep UNC opened Elon too. We might end up with South Carolina if UNC only sticks to North Carolina schools. If i remember correctly South Carolina is who Wofford had

You are correct. They hosted both SC and Georgia Tech the first year and opened the second year hosting UNC.

Quick note -t he Paladins are showing interest in Anton Strelnikov, 6'8" 205 post from Lake Zurich HS in the suburbs of Chicago. Strelnikov plays for the same AAU program that Ben Vanderwal played for. Although he can knock down mid-range jumpers he is mainly praised as an "old school" forward who is most effective with his strong low post moves for a good high school team Scored 17 ppg last season Has several offers from MAC teams. Reminds me of Matt Rafferty.

Sounds like the bad guy in a James Bond film. Love it.

Really excited for this class. We have already landed two great commits. Regardless of how this season turns out the future is still bright in Greenville!

I haven't seen it mentioned elsewhere, but Isaiah Campbell-Finch, a 6'0" pg from Tampa Catholic HS (Tampa, FL) announced an offer from Furman back in March. He was a high school teammate of Eddrin Bronson. He is also listed as having offers from more than a dozen schools including Dayton, UNCC, College of Charleston, South Florida,Florida Gulf Coast,Tulsa, Ohio U. and Kent State. His most recent offer is from Samford. Campbell-Finch was county POY after multiple 40+ scoring games this past season. Very quick guard who combines a good outside shot with slashing drives to the hoop. Also praised for his defense and playmaking abilities.

I see that Tate Darner, another Florida guard we showed interest in( although I didn't see that we ever offered) has committed to Chattanooga.
