Duncan (S.C.) Byrnes High defensive end Brandon Willis, a member of almost every recruiting service’s Top 100 list, decommitted from Tennessee over the weekend and is now expected to decide between North Carolina and UCLA, his father Gary said moments ago.
He will announce his decision at the U.S. Army All-American Game in San Antonio on Saturday.
Brandon, who is 6-foot-4 and 255 pounds, had been rumored to be considering the Tar Heels for some time, and officially visited Chapel Hill last month.
“His mama went to North Carolina, and she and his uncles live in Burlington now,” said Gary, who spent considerable time growing up in the Chapel Hill area.
Brandon’s father said the decommitment was nothing personal as far as Tennessee was concerned.
“He liked the coaches, and I really liked (head coach) Lane Kiffin’s style; he’s not one of those good ole boys,” Gary Willis said. “But it was a family decision; we talked it through as a family.”

mark it down, Willis is going to Carolina.
Check his facebook page, under Education. It says "Carolina '14, Physical Therapy".
He can spell? Man, looks like Butch is paying well the$e days...
The problem with kids is, they change their minds. I've seen Facebook posts simply intended to throw interested parties off the track. That said, North Carolina is obviously a legit player in this game. And he could have a huge and early impact there. But I'm just sayin'....
It won't matter since UNC-CH's offense is offensive. Their QB is going to get KILLED against LSU. Good luck to the whine and cheesers.
Obviously, many of you A-B-C's can't help but show your TRUE emotions! Yoo are just plain jealous! You sign off your comments as "Anonymous" because you don't want anyone calling YOU out when it's time to do some good old "munching" on those jealous, stupid comments you are spewing! The Heels are growing in stature and prestige with each and every new recruiting class and your team, wellll(?)...oh, how it MUST HURT! Go Butch! Go Tar Heels! Keep on pissing 'em off, Observer, and making 'em go crying to their little mama's! Cause they know who's their coming ACC FOOTBALL DADDY! ACC, 2010 - The year of Another Carolina Championship!
