Yesterday at 11:42 AM

North Carolina basketball’s newest star recruit Caleb Wilson picked the Tar Heels over Kentucky largely because he visited there first, via ESPN’s Jeff Borzello and Paul Biancardi.

“I picked North Carolina because of their culture and the history of the program,” Wilson told ESPN. “They were my first blue blood [offer]. Last year I went to the Duke at UNC game. I was courtside and it was a great experience. It was everything I was looking for in a program.”

“I love the passion and energy of coach Hubert Davis,” Wilson said. “I know he will push me to be my best and love me at the same time. He is a truth teller, and that’s what I want. We have watched film together. He tells me where I can be better. He is a man of faith, and we have a great connection. He plays his freshmen, too. I plan to help UNC win and win big. Then hopefully I can have a chance to be a one-and-done.”
