As he winds down his recruitment, the No. 5 ranked player in the country in the Class of 2025 visited UNC basketball and Chapel Hill. Caleb Wilson, the 6-foot-9 stretch post, was there for just one day.
Wilson is a five-star recruit with a 247sports composite score of .9982 which would make him the fifth-highest-ranked recruit in UNC basketball history.
Caleb Wilson’s father had some impressive and heartfelt comments on his visit to the campus at Chapel Hill with his son, via Adam Zagoria.
The visit was short and sweet; we were there on Saturday only. That campus is just picturesque. We got to ask some tough questions of the coaches and players, then see them live in action at practice. It was impressive, and the pace and energy were thrilling. We received all the answers needed from the visit.
Jerry Wilson went on to tell ZagsBlog on the message that UNC’s head coach gave Caleb and his family.
The message is that Caleb is wanted and needed here, so come be a part of this special place. He would be a vital part of the team next year. Allow the next chapter of your story to be on the biggest and brightest stage in college basketball. In the words of Coach [Hubert] Davis, at this level, you’re deciding on good vs good. You just have to figure out what’s best for you. Coach believes UNC fits that role best for Caleb.
North Carolina needs a guard like Wilson heading into next year with only Derek Dixon currently committed to the program. For now, we patiently await his decision.
