Would his brother rather sit out a season too so that they remain in the same class and have the same amount of elligibilty left? Looks like PT wasn't going to be a problem; however, being recruited over may have been. If their father wanted his sons to play at UCLA all along and the injury happened to open an opportunity? Were the twins homesick?
There are a bunch of reasons why this may have happened, but these seem to be the most likely. Regardless, UNC was put in a bad position and pappa Wear is the one that handled this situation. He is the one that waited until the last minute. Perhaps it was better for his kids not to announce while they still had a few weeks left of school, but they decided to do what favored them. I think they may have been good players to have on the team in the future, but in the short term and even in the long term- I think this worked out just fine.
