North Carolina: UNC Football Lands Second Class of 2028 Four-Star Commit.

Towering tight end Gregory Kirwan chooses the Tar Heels over Alabama and Ohio State, joining quarterback Levi Kerr to ignite a high-powered offensive foundation for the 2028 cycle. Kirwan is a 6-foot-5, 232-pound TE who currently plays for Lipscomb Academy in Nashville, TN.

According to Inside Carolina 's Don Callahan, first-year tight end coach Caleb Pickrell was influential of his commitment. Pickrell had Kirwan come to town for a pair of games, so while he didn't attend the same two as Kerr, it's clear that a pair of marquee visits has been enough to get the job done, up to this point.

These players go to show how quickly things can change in the world of college athletics as the Tar Heels previously had no commitments, but suddenly are building a tremendous new set of offensive weapons in a few years time. He's a top-400 overall player, and is listed as the No. 19 player in the state of Tennessee.

For reference, 14 is the magic number for Rivals as he's the No. 14 overall tight end in the class and is who they believe to be the 14th best player in the state. Notable schools to offer to Kirwan included: Alabama, Auburn, Ohio State, Tennessee, among others.
