UNC football named in 4-star recruit’s top 10 list

UNC football is one of ten schools named in 4-star Tight End recruit top 10 list.

The UNC football program has made the top 10 for 2025 4-star Tight End Marshall Pritchett.

Pritchett list includes UNC, South Carolina, Tennessee, Michigan, Auburn, FSU, Miami (Fl.), Georgia Tech, Wisconsin, and Virginia Tech. In a story picked up by On3, Pritchett explains what went into the decision-making of his top 10.

“Then it was about culture, tight end production and academics for me. Culture is very important to me. Now, with NIL, it is very easy to lose a program, so the culture is big for me. How the schools use the tight ends was key too. I want to be out in space and be used in the right scheme. All 10 schools are elite in certain aspects in academics too.

“Me and my parents made a checklist, we put things into four categories and these 10 schools really stood out.”

The 6-foot-5, 211-pound tight end is a Georgia native that has 20 offers in his recruitment.

He’s drawing significant interest and will certainly be a recruit to watch for UNC down the stretch. Prichett is the No. 259 player in the country, No. 13 tight end and No. 31 player in the state of Georgia per the 247Sports recruiting rankings.
