Ed Davis headed to ACC power

The rich get richer in the ACC.

UNC received its second commitment in 2008, and it's a big one. Ed Davis, a 6-8, 215-pound rising senior, verbally committed to Roy Williams and the Tar Heels. UConn and Virgina were also in the running.

Davis will join point guard Larry Drew Jr, who committed back in May, in the class of 2008. Roy Williams is back on track after missing several big names since the summer circuit began. Delvon Roe (Michigan State), Samardo Samuels (Louisville) and Al-Farouq Aminu (Wake Forest) had all spurned the Tar Heels.

However, UNC has enough cache to miss out on top prospects, reel in a big fish or two and eventually finish with a strong class. Davis, a power foward, paired with Drew Jr., a point guard, form as good an inside-out duo one could want.
