Haha......sure does. Zook and Co. are exceptional talent evaluators and if they want Evan, I'm all for it. It's players like these that make the program. The top players and difference makers are great and they make the program great, but guys like Evan, 4 year guys who will pass the torch, make up a program and keeps it consistent.

From the UNC site. Asisstant coach Thigpen was in to see Frierson, and said that he wants to offer him, but has to check with coach Davis first. He has no leaders at this point.

After a great UNC visit, Evan says he will likely cancel the rest of his visits and decide between the Tarheels and Illinois.

After committing to North Carolina on sunday and then decommitting, Frierson commits to Illinois today. Huge get.

I don't think he commited to UNC.....but it is a good pickup. Lots of potential. Another one of those sleepers for Zook....offers from UNC and Tennessee among others.....

He did commit to UNC, but almost immediately decommitted. Something happened REAL fast after his commitment.

"On Sunday night, Evan Frierson told InsideCarolina.com: "I'm a Tar Heel." An hour later, he changed his mind and decided he wasn't ready to end his recruitment."
