Northern Nash High School (N.C.) sophomore sensation CJ Rosser is the No. 1 prospect in the 2027 class, per Rivals, and No. 2 in the eyes of ESPN. And it’s likely only a matter of time before the 6-foot-8, 190-pound long-limbed forward lands somewhere near the center of the UNC basketball recruiting radar.

For now, UNC basketball head coach Hubert Davis and his crew have yet to extend any 2027 offers.

The Tar Heels didn’t enter any 2026 races until this past May. So, perhaps it’ll be another six months or more before they potentially extend an offer to Rosser, whose school is roughly a 70-minute drive from Chapel Hill, or any other top-tier talents among the nation’s current crop of sophomores.
