4* High school prospect

Carter wasted little time finding his feet with the Tar Heels’ and had a substantial role right out of the gate.

He’s improved each season and in 2020 formed a powerful RB partnership with Javante Williams.

(2/6)
They became the prototypical ‘Thunder and Lightening’ backfield with Williams’ power/strength and Carter’s quickness/elusiveness.

However, with the emergence of Williams, Michael Carter is now becoming a bit of a forgotten man out of this North Carolina backfield.
