Hopewell 2028 QB James Armstrong Receives Offer from Bill Belichick and North Carolina
On the heels of the best game of his young high school football career, Hopewell High School (PA) sophomore quarterback James Armstrong received some big recruiting news this morning.
Armstrong received news that his second Power 4 offer comes from legendary HC Bill Belichick and the North Carolina Tar Heels. Last season, Armstrong received his first Power 4 offer from Pat Narduzzi and Pitt. Armstrong got the news this morning from Tar Heels GM Michael Lombardi.
This past Friday in a 51-50 loss to Beaver, the 6’3″, 220-pound left-handed quarterback threw for 346 yards, ran for 263 yards and 6 TD’s.
As PSN has forecasted and it really isn’t a surprise, Armstrong’s recruitment will be picking up a bunch this season and likely over the coming weeks and months.
With his rifle for an arm, ability to keep plays alive and power he’s able to run with, his talent is obvious, and it was only a matter of time before major programs started offering.
Despite Pitt taking a leap of faith and offering last season as a freshman, schools have been cautious only because of his age. With North Carolina offering today, look for the flood gate of offers to begin.
At this time, no national recruiting service has given him a star rating but that too will change soon as he’s a 4 or 5-star talent.
