4-star WR Christian Hamilton commits to in-state North Carolina

Harrisburg (N.C.) Hickory Ridge four-star wide receiver Christian Hamilton has committed to North Carolina, announcing the news Saturday.

He is the third Tar Heels commit in the last two days along with Durham (N.C.) Southern four-star EDGE Jaybron Harvey and Kennesaw (Ga.) North Cobb three-star offensive tackle Robert Grigsby.

Harvey and Hamilton make up two of the top eight prospect from the state of North Carolina. They are also now the top two recruits in the 2023 North Carolina recruiting class.

Hamilton is the No. 182 overall recruit in the 2023 cycle, according to the On3 Consensus, a complete and equally weighted industry-generated average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies.

He currently has an On3 NIL Valuation of $17.5k. The On3 NIL Valuation is an index that looks to set the standard market value for both high school and college-level athletes. The NIL valuation does not act as a tracker of the value of NIL deals an athlete has completed to date. It rather signifies an athlete’s value at a certain moment in time.
