UNC Basketball: Roy Williams set to visit 5-star point guard

University of North Carolina Tar Heels head coach Roy Williams has another in-home visit lined up next week. Find out who he will be in to see.

You can add another in-home visit to Roy Williams’ growing list for next week as the new contact period begins on Sunday.

Williams is set to visit class of 2019 targets Vernon Carey Jr., Matthew Hurt and now Cole Anthony next week. Adam Zagoria of Zag’s Blog tweeted out on Thursday that Williams will make a trip to visit Anthony on Tuesday at Oak Hill Academy in Virginia.

It’s the third known trip for Williams next week as he will visit Carey Jr. on September 13th and Hurt sometime next week, with a date unknown for the trip to Minnesota. The three prospects are all Top 10 recruits in the 2019 class with Carey Jr. ranked No. 2, Anthony No. 3 and Hurt No. 6.

All three of the prospects are high on UNC’s recruiting board as Williams has shown interest in each of them.

Anthony just released his Top 12 days ago, including the Tar Heels after he visited Chapel Hill back in August. The point guard has emerged as one of the top players and guards in this 2019 class and is considered to be a player that can really change a program.

As for his recruitment, Anthony has kept it relatively silent. Up until that top 12 was released, he remained mum on his top schools.

Although his recruitment has been silent, UNC is considered one of the top teams for Anthony and it wouldn’t shock us if he named them on his final list.

Five-star center and UNC verbal commit Armando Bacot is close with Anthony and has already expressed his desire to recruit Anthony to the Tar Heels. Williams has already built a solid foundation for the class, landing Bacot and point guard Jeremiah Francis but he’d love to add another guard and wing player.

Zagoria notes in the tweet that Miami, Wake Forest and Notre Dame are all also expected to visit in-home with Anthony next week.
