#Recruiting

This week in Recruiting · updated Mon Sep 21 2026

This week in college sports recruiting, the focus is squarely on the 2027 class. North Carolina's men's basketball program is maintaining an aggressive push, hosting a second five-star prospect for a weekend campus visit as the Tar Heels work to build their future roster. On the other side of the SEC, Alabama has secured its first commitment for the 2027 cycle, landing a pledge from top-25 guard Chase Lumpkin. Coach Nate Oats expects the recruit to strengthen the Crimson Tide's backcourt. These two developments underscore the early, competitive nature of recruiting for the 2027 class, with major programs like UNC and Alabama making strategic moves to lock in top talent well before the traditional signing periods.
