Her commitment was hard to gauge. However one thing I did notice is that she has the Nigerian flag on her Insta profile. That gave me hope that we had an advantage with Coach Jo and Gabby!

Love beating dook for a recruit; hopefully we beat dook for Carter on Monday as well!
On3's Talia Goodman article on Ojo commit:
Top 2027 recruit Micah Ojo commits to UNC
Top 2027 recruit Micah Ojo has committed to North Carolina, she told Rivals. The 6-1 wing from Virginia Beach (Va.) Princess Anne High School chose the
Oh, and I am happy to say, just turned the first recruit blue on the original post this thread!
On paper, the roster is now full for the 2026-27 season.
Any additional commitments will now mean that someone with eligibility remaining will leave UNC at the end of this season. The national average for transfers out is a little over 3 per season and the majority of graduated students transferred out during the COVID 5 year era, so not an actual cause for concern.

That's so awesome! Hopefully we can still land a couple more big names! I wasn't expecting this lol
Manyacka commented on Ojo's commitment in the 1st hour...
Random stat:
UNC has landed the top recruit in Virginia 3 of the last 4 years (2024 Grant, 2025 Brooks, 2027 Ojo.) That is all of the top 50 players from that state in the last 6 recruiting cycles.
In 2026 the top recruit was #84 Rickenbacker who went to ECU; not someone we offered. Same with 2023: #88 Zakiyah Stephenson who went to Ole Miss.

It was for Ojo. Milkey just made a post about how they were wrong. Perfect outcome
I took a peek over at the Duke WBB recruiting board and they are not happy over there about today's development....hehehe. 
Very interested to see where this class goes from here.
If we get Carter on Monday, do we fall back on Savoury? I’d guess Manyacka is so talented that we’ll run the race for her no matter what.
It seems like a lot of wings to target, but we have the PG position locked down with depth through next year with Kate and Reniya, and CB does a great job of getting impact bigs through the portal.
