“I am proud to announce I am 100% committed to the University of North Carolina!” Tannenbaum wrote. “Can’t thank Coach Belichick and [newly hired UNC football special teams coordinator Mike Priefer] enough for this opportunity. #GDTBATH”
His offer sheet also included Washington, Tulane, and Boston College. He visited Boston College earlier this month, leading to his offer from the Eagles.
