Adrian Wilson hasn't played in a regular season game at the college level yet, but his recruiting story is quite crazy to say the least!

Wilson, a Pflugerville, Texas native, is a four-star wide receiver out of the Class of 2025. He originally committed to TCU, but ended up flipping his commitment not once, not twice, but THREE times after, as his pledge went from TCU to Oregon to Arizona State to eventually Colorado.

Arriving at Colorado in December, Wilson spent a few months with Deion Sanders and the Buffaloes. With spring ball concluded, Wilson decided that he changed his mind, again, entering the transfer portal on the first day of the spring portal window.

Early on Thursday morning, Wilson announced his next destination, as he'll be joining Bill Belichick and the UNC football program.

The Tar Heels lost two receivers already to the transfer portal (Gavin Blackwell and Christian Hamilton), so the added depth will certainly be beneficial for them heading into the new season. However, we wouldn't blame you for being skeptical in this given case, especially knowing how Wilson's path to college football was quite the journey in itself.

Ideally, the hope is that Wilson can come in and make an impact in Chapel Hill. You just hope that he's fully invested and doesn't change his mind, again.
