The 2025-26 college basketball season is officially less than a week away, with Carolina set to open the season against Central Arkansas next Monday in the Smith Center. The Tar Heels are set to host Winston-Salem State tomorrow night, in the final preseason exhibition, after losing to BYU in exhibition competition last Friday night.  With the season right around the corner, all the preseason watch lists are in the process of being unveiled, and earlier today, senior guard Se

Sports Illustrated Last week, the ACC held its annual preseason event in Charlotte, where coaches and players met with the assembled media ahead of the 2025-26 season. It’s during that time that the preseason voting takes place, and today the results were released, and they set the bar of expectations for the UNC program from a media perspective going into this season.
