North Carolina basketball schedules visit with 2028 recruit Brady Pettigrew

North Carolina basketball has secured an official campus visit from five-star 2028 prospect Brady Pettigrew. The combo guard is scheduled to visit Chapel Hill on October 9. Pettigrew is currently ranked as the number 14 player nationally and the top-ranked prospect in Illinois. This development follows a summer during which North Carolina extended a scholarship offer to the 6-foot-3, 185-pound guard. The visit is part of a broader recruitment tour for Pettigrew, who has also locked in trips to Michigan, Indiana, Florida, Illinois, Kentucky, and BYU throughout the fall. The effort to recruit Pettigrew marks a significant step for the program under new head coach Michael Malone as the staff rebuilds following the team's early exit in the previous NCAA Tournament.
