Portal season, besides the commitment of Cade Tyson and return of RJ Davis, has been an underwhelming one for Hubert Davis and the Tar Heels thus far. News didn't get any better on Sunday afternoon as top target Cliff Omoruyi chose Alabama over North Carolina and others.
The 6-foot-11 Rutgers big man was one of multiple centers that the Tar Heel staff recently pushed for to fill the departure of Armando Bacot, but Coach Davis has had zero luck and will still be searching heading into mid-May for a replacement center. After a near silent recruitment, Omoruyi was in Chapel Hill for a visit earlier this week, but it ended up not being enough to get him in Carolina blue.
