2017 offensive lineman commits to North Carolina

Just a day after his official visit, 2017 offensive lineman Jordan Tucker committed to the University of North Carolina.

Tucker made the announcement on Monday, noting that it was the “family aspect” that he felt at UNC during his recruitment that ultimately convinced him to commit to North Carolina.

He is the fifth and final offensive lineman that the Tar Heels were looking for in the class of 2017. He joins Brian Anderson, Marcus McKethan, Jonah Melton, and Billy Ross.
