UNC Football Recruiting: Four-star DB Michael Daugherty primer

We preview four-star defensive back Michael Daugherty’s decision between UNC and LSU.

A big UNC football recruiting target in the 2023 class is set to make his decision in the coming hours. Four-star defensive back [autotag]Michael Daughtery[/autotag] will officially pledge his commitment to one school on Wednesday night, ending his recruitment once and for all.

The Georgia native has a total of 43 offers in his recruitment but going into decision day, it appears to be a two-team battle between North Carolina and LSU. Programs like Auburn, Georgia, Louisville, and Texas are still involved, however, it’s likely to be either the Tar Heels or Tigers.

The recruit has visited both campuses and was most recently in Chapel Hill over the weekend for the Spring Game.

This is a tough recruitment to get a feel for and there’s just one crystal ball prediction, belonging to LSU from a 247Sports LSU insider. There hasn’t been a prediction just yet from a national insider but with a decision looming, that could be coming any moment now.

Going into this recruitment, UNC has just one commitment in the 2023 class with that being four-star quarterback Tad Hudson. Getting another commitment would move their class up and get them off to a good start in this cycle with a lot of time remaining.
