Can Tar Heels Upset Jayhawks? Early Season Showdown Promises Unexpected Twist

North Carolina is fairly identical to Kansas. They are also 1-0 and are a top 25-ranked team, but they are 25th. Their season last year was a little bit better than Kansas, but not by much. They played for the ACC Championship, and Duke ended up beating them by just three points. In the NCAA Tournament, they took down San Diego State (First Four) with ease before losing to Ole Miss in the 1st round. The team did lose their top two scorers as well, with RJ Davis in the G league and Ian Jackson headed to St. John’s. They had a nice recruiting class, both of incoming freshmen and via the transfer portal. They nabbed one of the top-10 players overall, and potentially best Power Forward in the freshman class in Caleb Wilson. Derek Dixon and Isaiah Denis both should be good additions to the backcourt as well. There are a few guys who came via the transfer portal who will make a big impact rather quickly. Jarin Stevenson, Henri Veesaar, and Kyan Evans all started in the first game, and all are transfer players. Wilson has 22 points in 25 minutes on 8-of-10 shooting.
