Ty Murray has informed Inside Carolina that he de-committed from Louisville and committed to North Carolina on Sunday. The center prospect officially visited UNC this weekend.

"The big thing is family and how they relate," Murray said. "As soon as we stepped foot on campus, we just felt that family vibe and that connection."

When Murray, a 6-foot-4, 300-pound offensive lineman from Carrollton (Ga.), initially committed to Louisville in October, Bobby Petrino was its head coach. A month later, Petrino was fired and eventually replaced by Scott Satterfield. An official visited to Louisville the weekend prior to the Early Signing Period ostensibly locked Murray into signing with the Cardinals. But, a UNC offer extended a couple of days later forced him to postpone his signing. He will now sign on Feb. 6 and send his National Letter of Intent to Chapel Hill.

It was actually Murray's initial connection to Louisville that brought him and UNC together.

"When Coach [Lonnie] Galloway was at Louisville, he was recruiting me really hard -- he was the one who offered me," Murray said. "We just made a great connection and a great relationship over the past couple of months. Before he got the job at North Carolina, he called me up and was like, 'Hey, I'm not at Louisville anymore. I'm coming to get you wherever I go, though.' So then he wound up at North Carolina."

Murray's commitment pushes UNC's 2019 class to 20 members. And, he's the fourth offensive linemen to pledge to the Tar Heels; fellow offensive line prospects Triston Miller, Asim Richards, and Wyatt Tunall signed with the school in December.

A three-star prospect, Murray is the 52nd ranked offensive guard in the nation, according to the 247Sports Composite.

During his high school career at Carrollton High, Murray has played all five offensive line positions. This past season, though, he settled in at center, which is exactly where UNC projects him to play.

"[UNC's coaches] told me they really wanted me to come in to play center," Murray said. "They told me how I could come in and fight for the job. But they told me the good thing about me is I could play anywhere on the line because I've played all five positions."
