8 of the top 12 players on paper this season will be sophomores and freshmen so there will still be a learning curve especially now that there is a new coach with new ideas so it will probably take 10 or 12 games before the team looks like a well oiled machine clicking on both offense and defense but I for one am looking forward to the growth of the squad…
The team although young will be at least two deep at every position so nobody should have to raise their fist to get a break but the jury is still out until proven during live games that the court players can consistently hit shots from the outside to keep opponents honest which except for Walton really did not happen last season.
As often said the biggest improvement in a college players game is from their freshman to sophomore season and if that is true this might be a special season in Chapel Hill but I am not ready to put Carolina in the final four until I see how the team chemistry works out. I will be interested to see how others feel about the growth of the team as the season progresses…
