The North Carolina Tar Heels have been doing a good job in the 2027 recruiting class, as they have been searching across the nation for many different prospects. They have been looking to land multiple different players, but they have been able to get off to a great start. They have landed multiple different commits in the class, including two players. Both players are offensive prospects.

One of the prospects is Skylar Robinson. Robinson is one of the better wide receivers in the nation, and the other one is Amir Brown from the state of North Carolina. He is from Rolesville, North Carolina, and is one of the better players at Rolesville High School.

They are now searching for the best defensive prospects to land in the class, including one of the better defensive linemen in the class. Kaden McCarty plays EDGE for Cy Falls High School in the state of Texas. The Cy Falls High School star holds offers from many different schools, including the North Carolina Tar Heels, who have valued high on their board. They will hope to land him, but they will need to do some work in his recruitment to do so.

He recently caught up with North Carolina Tar Heels On SI to detail how his recruitment is going as of late, as well as how the Tar Heels can find ways to improve. Here is what he has to say in his interview.
