Darn it again no games close to Philly oh well I am still looking foward to seeing the season... Anyway the schedule...The biggest out of conferce threat would be probably Kentucky but it's in Chaple Hill so I'd go with a W there...Anywhere from 22-27 wins would be expected
I think they have a chance at making it in the final four. They will prolly finish ranked in the top 5.
Texas or Louisville would be a tough threat in the Maui Invitational, but they lost some key components to their team.
We have the chance to get revenge against Texas after they knocked us out of the Big Dance. I think they will be a Final Four team and the champs of the NCAA!!!!!
I'm not sure i just check www.tarheelblue.com like everyother day for my UNC news and I saw the schedule so I posted it here. If I find some I'll post them.
i think the tarheels can make it all the way, with felton and and all there great newcomers theyll be unstopable!!! they will prolly will have a tough time against duke but i think they'll go allll the waaay! my prediction 24-4.
