4-star RB Adarius Lemons commits to North Carolina's 2017 class

North Carolina's explosive offense added an important piece for the future Thursday, as four-star running back Adarius Lemons committed to the Tar Heels for 2017.

The Florida native is the 23rd-ranked running back in the nation, and is listed 205th overall on the ESPN 300. His commitment is the sixth four-star recruit to join the 2017 Tar Heels class.

Lemons held 23 other offers, including top-name programs such as Florida, Miami, and South Carolina, but ultimately chose to play his college ball in the ACC.
