Top Prospect Will Be A Tar Heel


The rich will get richer in college basketball next year. The North Carolina Tar Heels recently received a commitment from Ames, Iowa product Harrison Barnes. Barnes, a 6'8 small forward, is near unanimously considered to be the top prep player in the country this year and holds the top spot in the ESPNU Top 100. He considered Duke, UCLA, Kansas, and Oklahoma before deciding that he would bleed Carolina blue. Barnes will join the currently talented North Carolina as a member of a 2010 recruiting class that also includes highly ranked guards Reggie Bullock and Kendall Marshall. Barnes' commitment means that the Heels now have pledges from three of the country's top 20 high schoolers.

Here's a look at the top prospect in action....

I have seen footage of Barnes on several recruiting websites, and he seems like he is an All-American caliber player with a very bright future ahead of him.
