CB Bell focused on one school

Virginia Beach (Va.) Kempsville cornerback Lester Bell is beginning to focus on one school. The 5-foot-11, 173-pounder already holds an offer from them, but has to talk with the head coach.
"Right now we're staying in contact with North Carolina," Bell's father, Lester Sr. said. "We have plans to meet coach Butch Davis at some point in the next week or so.

"We just want to get to know coach Davis better and hope they are interested in continuing to recruit him. If all goes well, we're hoping to sign on with them very soon, but we'll see what happens."
Bell and his father are impressed by the Tar Heel hire.
"We both think that's a good opportunity for Lester," he said. "We know that coach Davis has an expertise at building programs. His pro record and connections to the next level are also very impressive and we're very excited to meet with him."
Previously, the two-star prospect was also very high on East Carolina. Is that still the case?
"Not at this present time," he said. "We're really hoping for UNC and hoping that'll be the school he gets into."
