Tar Heels and Wolf Pack interested in Gainesville receiver
Gainesville receiver Tyler Adetona is being heavily recruited by a pair of ACC programs.
Adetona, who has scholarship offers from schools such as Ball State, Georgia Southern, Indiana, Marshall, Middle Tennessee State and Troy, is receiving interest from North Carolina and N.C. State.
“North Carolina said they were only going to take one receiver,” said the 6-foot-2, 203-pound Adetona, who is averaging well over 100 yards per game in receptions this season for the Red Elephants. “Now, they’re talking about taking two receivers.
“I went to camp there this summer and worked hard. I feel like I have all the key ingredients they’re looking for.
“I went to camp there and worked at the corner position. They just like my ability to play many positions.”
Adetona sees a good fit for himself at North Carolina or N.C. State.
“I really want to get to N.C. State and visit,” he said. “But I know North Carolina is appealing. I like the area up there around Chapel Hill. It’s calm and quiet and reminds me of home.”

Adetona commits to Indiana
Gainesville receiver Tyler Adetona was very candid Tuesday night when asked why he withdrew his October commitment from Troy earlier this week, which opened the door for him to commit to Indiana late Monday.
?I felt pressured by Troy,? Adetona admitted. ?I decided to go to Indiana over the weekend and really enjoyed it. I didn?t feel any pressure at all from the coaches up there.
?They wouldn?t even let me commit while I was there. They wanted me to go home, talk to my head coach [at Gainesville], then de-commit. They didn?t want to cause any hard feelings.?
Adetona, who teamed with Gerald Ford to give Gainesville one of the state?s most potent receiving corps this season, said he instantly fell in love with the Bloomington campus.
?It?s a great school, which is a big plus, they have a great football program and they take care of you,? Adetona said. ?And what else can you ask for academically?
?It?s a beautiful place.?
