Washington took an official visit to UNC in late September and had all good things to say about his trip to the campus in Chapel Hill, North Carolina.
“Some of the things that I have I been telling people is that Coach Williams is a good guy,” Washington told CarolinaBlue following the official visit. “He is a down-to-earth type of guy. (P.J) did have a good time, I can tell you that. He had a great time. Roy is a very personable guy.”
Washington isn’t rushing his decision and will continue to work through the process before eliminating the teams that remain on his list.
The Tar Heels will continue to pursue the talented big man, hoping to snag another elite player to add to their 2017 class.
