Ridgeview (SC) junior Corey Corbett mentioned several times his affinity for all things UNC basketball. But now, the 6-foot-4, 170-pound guard has a four-star rating and is ranked No. 69 by 247Sports, giving him a realistic chance of hearing from the Tar Heels before long. It suggests that.
Sure, it might sound like a dream come true for Corbett, an athletic defender and offensive bucket-getter, but so far he's been playing for a number of players from South Carolina State, Ole Miss, and Bethune Cookman. There are only offers.
“The University of North Carolina Tar Heels, that's my dream school,” Corbett enthusiastically admitted to Pro Insight last week while competing for Upward Stars on the adidas 3SSB circuit. “I'm a lifelong fan. And I love color. I love color and shoes. I love everything about it.”
UNC Basketball is still waiting on its first commitment in the 2025 recruiting process, but has not yet made an offer for Arena in 2026. The Tar Heels' high-profile high school senior will be in the spotlight in the coming weeks and months as Hubert Davis and his allies travel the country scouting top grassroots activities. interest will increase.
College coaches can begin contacting 2026 prospects directly starting June 15th.
I wouldn't be surprised if Corey Corbett gets a call from the Tar Heels that day or soon after. No doubt he's looking forward to chatting with the coaches in Chapel Hill.
