Players-only meeting follows UNC’s lackluster win over Navy

CHAPEL HILL — There wasn’t much joy for Carolina’s players after a tougher-than-expected victory over Navy. The Caleb Wilson Show was electrifying, as always, but Navy’s late 17–3 run had the team looking within after the 71–63 victory Tuesday at the Smith Center.

UNC gets record kick, but can’t kick-start red-zone offense

WINSTON-SALEM — When your offense can’t find the end zone, kicking field goals can only get you so far, even if that includes a school record. Wake Forest made enough big plays and every promising UNC drive sputtered as the Demon Deacons ended a four-game losing streak against the Tar Heels with a 28–12 win Saturday night at Allegacy Stadium.

Young Tar Heels flashes, grit and growth, but can’t overcome No. 2 Gamecocks

ATLANTA — The young No. 11 Tar Heels already knew that they would give a significant preseason test against No. 2 South Carolina, and it got even tougher with two key players sitting at the end of the bench.

Newmark brings NASCAR mindset to UNC athletics, acknowledging it will make some ‘uncomfortable’

Steve Newmark grew up in Chapel Hill, rode his father’s shoulders during the 1982 NCAA championship celebration on Franklin Street, and once got permission to skip a college exam to watch the 1993 Final Four with his family. He says honoring the UNC athletics traditions will require bold changes that some Carolina fans might resist.

Columnist’s proposal would put UNC football in SEC as part of ‘Super League’

North Carolina in the SEC as part of a two-conference “Super League” in football? That’s the scenario columnist Joe DePaulo proposed Tuesday in a Mediaite column, where he outlines a bold new structure for college football — one that places the Tar Heels in the SEC East as part of a “Super League” shared with the Big Ten.

UNC projected for First Four, among ‘last 4 in’

Even after surviving what would have been a devastating home loss to Boston College, North Carolina’s NCAA tournament hopes are teetering after the Tar Heels began a tough four-game stretch with a Quad 1 loss. Only 50 of 86 bracket projections on Bracket Matrix have UNC in the field, with the average seed being the fourth-highest No. 11 seed. The Tar Heels (13–9, 6–4 ACC) were already in a bad position before Tuesday’s 73–65 loss at Pittsburgh dropped them from 40th to 42nd in the NET rankings.

Two days later, North Carolina’s defensive effort in its 102-96 victory Saturday over Boston College still befuddles Coach Hubert Davis. That frustration translated into some frank discussions with his team.

‘Little things,’ defensive lapses costly in UNC’s damaging Quad 3 loss

CHAPEL HILL — North Carolina couldn’t find that extra gear and the level of defensive intensity that carried the Tar Heels during their four-game win streak, and they didn’t do the little things needed to extend it. The result — a 72–71 loss to Stanford on Saturday after a step-back jumper from former Duke reserve Jaylen Blakes with 1.5 seconds left — gave UNC a damaging Quad 3 loss and led to much reflection about what went wrong.

UNC rises again in NET after win over SMU, gains another Quad 1 game on schedule

CHAPEL HILL — Quad 2 victories are never going to give a team’s NCAA tournament resume a huge boost, but they are still helpful. That was the case with Carolina’s 82–67 Quad 2 home victory Tuesday over SMU, which bumped up the Tar Heels (10–6, 3–1 ACC) three spots to 39th in the NET, which is five higher than they were the day after Saturday’s 74–73 Quad 2 victory at Notre Dame (7–7, 1–2; 100 in NET).

Heels searching for answers after unraveling in final minutes

LOUISVILLE — It’s a new year, but North Carolina issues that made the season a rough ride in 2024 created a familiar bumpy finish to the first game of 2025. Much like the loss to Florida in Charlotte, a disjointed half-court offense, rebounding woes and poor decisions led UNC to let a game get away late.

UNC holds AP Top 25 women’s poll spot after big road win at Miami

Without any teams ahead of North Carolina in last week’s AP Top 25 women’s poll losing, the Tar Heels didn’t move up in the latest poll despite an impressive road victory.

Doc Kennedy: How I learned to stop worrying and love Bill Belichick

University of North Carolina head football coach Bill Belichick. It is still somewhat surreal to know this is something that exists. It is beyond amazing that the search to replace the most successful coach in Carolina football history ended with arguably the most successful coach in NFL history. In one of the most chaotic years in college football in recent memory, a six-time Super Bowl-winning coach taking his first college job at 72 years old absolutely tracks.
