The UNC basketball program will hold a Zoom meeting with this potential transfer portal target.

If you assumed they were idle, think again! Jim Tanner, Hubert Davis, and the UNC basketball program have been actively reaching out to potential targets in the transfer portal. According to Joe Tipton from On3, the Tar Heels are set to host a Zoom meeting on Tuesday with one of these prospects: West Virginia transfer Jonathan Powell.

West Virginia transfer Jonathan Powell completed an official visit to Ohio State today, he tells @On3sports.

Let’s keep this under wraps from West Virginia fans, who are probably still upset about North Carolina “taking” their spot in the NCAA Tournament.

On another note, Jonathan Powell is a 6-foot-6 guard from Dayton, Ohio. He spent his freshman year at West Virginia but is now exploring other options due to the coaching changes in the program. Primarily starting, Powell averaged 8.3 points and 3.1 rebounds per game during his freshman season, with standout performances including two games where he scored a high of 17 points.

The UNC basketball program is aiming to add more size to their roster, and Powell would definitely contribute to that. At 6-foot-6, he can play as a guard or on the wing, offering versatility that would benefit Hubert Davis’s lineup strategies.

Recruiting through the transfer portal is a quick process—programs nationwide are eager to make a strong first impression on potential recruits. Similarly, they assess which players align best with their needs, considering both on-court fit and NIL opportunities.

It’s clear that the UNC basketball program will be linked to several more players in the coming weeks, and we’ll likely see which prospects they are most interested in as time goes on.

The real question is: will Jonathan Powell be one of those players?
