The North Carolina Tar Heels will play 32 regular season games in the upcoming season (including 12 non-conference games, rather than 11), thanks to an NCAA rulebook exception allowing teams to play one extra game against an NCAA member institution in Hawai’I or Alaska. In that instance the game does not count against the team’s maximum number of allowed games for the season. This extra game will be a great opportunity for more experience between the Tar Heels.

Phil Steele named three Tar Heels to one of his Preseason All-America teams. Omarion Hampton made the first team while Bryson Nesbit and Kaimon Rucker each made fourth team.

Ethan Strand will run in the 1,500m Team USA qualifying final Monday night.

Thanks to an industrious YouTuber, we were all treated to the opportunity to watch UNC’s camp scrimmage from this past week. We got our first looks at freshmen Ian Jackson, Drake Powell, and James Brown in action. We also got to watch Cade Tyson and Ven-Allen Lubin for the first time. And it’s always fun to see how the returners are continuing to grow, which this year includes RJ Davis, Elliot Cadeau, Seth Trimble, Jalen Washington, Jae’lyn Withers, and Zayden High. Washington didn’t play in the scrimmage.

Also – multiple basketball recruiting updates came along late this week – with new info on Acaden Lewis, Niko Bundalo, and Kendre Harrison. And finally, we thought we had the 2024-25 non-con schedule all sorted it out, but there might be one more piece to add.

The first session of UNC Summer Basketball Camp is going on this weekend and our Coach Rob is there as always coaching and getting a first glimpse of the team. Which freshmen has impressed him the most so far – Ian Jackson, Drake Powell, or James Brown? Is Cade Tyson as tall as he seems? Will his shooting translate up to the ACC level? How is Ven-Allen Lubin adjusting? Will Elliot Cadeau take strides with his shooting and confidence to take the shots? Does RJ Davis have another level to get to? Which alumni are around for this first session of camp?
