@UNC_Basketball It wasn’t the best effort we’ve seen from the Tar Heels this season, but it was still good enough to earn an 80-62 win over USC Upstate, on a day where Carolina certainly didn’t play their best. Caleb Wilson led UNC once again, with his ACC-leading 7th double-double of the season, scoring 20 points, and grabbing 11 rebounds. He was 6-7 from the field, with a couple of highlight dunks, in the process. He would’ve had more points had he converted at the foul lin

@UNC_Basketball After not having a mid-week game due to exams on campus, the Tar Heels return to action this afternoon against USC-Upstate from the Big South conference. The last time we saw Carolina, they routed Georgetown 81-61, to improve to 8-1 on the season, and 6-0 at home. That win was powered by the lethal combination of Caleb Wilson and Henri Veesaar, who have emerged as one of the best duos in all of college basketball, combining to average 35 points and nearly 20 r

GoHeels.com After starting the season with a five-game homestand, the Tar Heels return to the friendly confines of the Smith Center for three straight games, beginning this afternoon against Georgetown. Earlier this week, Carolina secured a road win at Kentucky, 67-64 in the ACC/SEC Challenge, behind the heroics of freshman Derek Dixon, who scored 5 points in the final minute to help propel Carolina to a win. It was the first road win for UNC against a ranked opponent since w

Bleacer Report After two seasons with the UNC football program, veteran QB Max Johnson announced his decision to transfer away from the Tar Heels. Johnson joined Carolina two years ago, when he transferred in from Texas A&M, committing to play for Mack Brown. He opened as the starter for the team in the season opener at Minnesota, where he suffered a gruesome leg injury that forced him to miss the rest of the 2024 season. After Carolina added Gio Lopez in the spring portal la

ESPN.com With National Signing Day officially in the rear-view mirror, the focus for Bill Belichick and his staff is figuring out how many players are entering the transfer portal, so the staff can begin working on how to revamp the roster for next season, when the portal officially opens next month. Earlier today, Carolina lost their 8th player from the 2025 roster to the portal, as redshirt freshman Javarius Green entered the portal, after posting 13 catches, for 150 yards

ESPN.com Looking to bounce back, against a desperate Kentucky team, UNC went on the road, into a hostile Rupp Arena and earned a 67-64 win, in the ACC/SEC Challenge, to give Carolina their first win in Lexington since 2007, and arguably the biggest win since winning at Duke back in March of 2024 to clinch the ACC regular season title. And while Caleb Wilson and Henri Veesaar both recorded double-doubles, it was freshman Derek Dixon, not even a starter, who came to the rescue,

Sports Illustrated Despite going just 4-8 this season, and 2-6 in league games, there were some Tar Heel football players to be recognized by the conference’s media members, as the 2025 All-ACC teams were announced earlier today.  The first player to earn honors on either the first or the second team was defensive lineman, Melkart Abou Joude, who recorded 10.5 sacks and 47 tackles, including 12 tackles for loss, while starting all 12 games after transferring in from Delaware

CBS 17 After having a few days off to regroup after the loss to Michigan State on Thanksgiving night, the Tar Heels return to action tonight, in the ACC/SEC Challenge, as they travel to Kentucky to take on the #18 Wildcats.

@UNC_Basketball Seeking their first 7-0 start since their last national championship, the Tar Heels instead were instead tripped up 74-58 by Michigan State, in a game that was closer than the final score, but not as close as it should’ve or could’ve been. Carolina took a 22-15 lead with less than 8 minutes left to play in the first half, which prompted a Tom Izzo timeout. After that timeout, Michigan State responded with a 13-0 run and never looked back, on their way to the w

@UNC_Basketball Thanksgiving may be a football holiday, but college basketball takes center stage today, as two of the most iconic programs in the sport, North Carolina and Michigan State, are prepared to do battle in Fort Myers, Florida, later this afternoon.

WPTF Behind a career night from Henri Veesaar, the Tar Heels got past a feisty St. Bonaventure squad, 85-70, to secure their first start 6-0, since the 2016-17 season, the last time Carolina won the national championship. Many nights early on this season, Caleb Wilson has been the best player for UNC, but last night that title went to Veesaar, who scored a career high 24 points and grabbed a career high 13 rebounds, for the third double-double of his career, all coming at UNC

@UNC_Basketball After a week off, the Tar Heels return to action this evening against St. Bonaventure, in the first of two games in the Fort Myers Tip-Off. The Tar Heels have raced off to a 5-0 start, headlined by a win over Kansas back in the first week of the season, but at the season turns three weeks old, Carolina is set to play their first game away from Chapel Hill this season.

Sports Illustrated A long homestand to begin the 2025-26 season comes to a close later tonight in the Smith Center, as the #18 Tar Heels will host Navy, in their fifth straight home game to open the season. The five-game homestand is the longest to begin a season since 1918-19, and it features a historical win over Kansas a few weeks ago.

Scott Kisner - Kisner Imagn Last night, in a sleepy Smith Center, Carolina routed North Carolina Central, 97-53, to improve to 4-0 on the young season, and in the process, secured their second 40-point win of the season. Carolina was paced by double-doubles from both Caleb Wilson (21 points & 13 rebounds) and Henri Veesaar (12 points & 11 rebounds), as UNC’s size overwhelmed the small school from the MEAC.

Avanca.com After securing a clunky win over Radford earlier this week, 89-74, the Tar Heels are back in action at home later tonight, against North Carolina Central. This will be the second game without Seth Trimble, who is sidelined for the next 6-7 weeks with a broken arm. His absence forced Luka Bogavac into the starting lineup, who led UNC in scoring and assists in the win over Radford, and appeared to find his offensive rhythm in the second half. With that in mind, Carol

YardBarker After securing Hubert Davis’s most impressive non-conference win of his coaching career last Friday against Kansas, the Tar Heels return to action tonight at home against Radford, the third of five straight home games to start the 2025-26 season.

@UNC_Basketball Last night, inside a raucous Dean Dome, the Tar Heels took down the Kansas Jayhawks, in a battle of college basketball heavyweights, giving Carolina their first win over KU since 2002, and giving Hubert Davis arguably his biggest non-conference win of his coaching career. It wasn’t always pretty for Carolina, who actually trailed Kansas 37-29 at the half, after turning it over 10 times, leading to 17 Kansas points, combined with just 3-15 shooting from the out
