Heels Hoops
UNC basketball for the analytically inclined
Seven national championships and counting...
We're only 30 days away from tip-off from the 2021 - 2022 season! Incredibly, our first really look at the team via the Late Night event is on October 15th, only 5 days away. So what can we expect for the upcoming season? Let's look at a few sources and how they rank us:
Bartovik T-Rank (21st in the country, 22nd in Offensive Efficiency, 36th in Defensive Efficiency) Three Man Weave (14th in the country) ESPN (projected #5 seed) Largely we're projected to be better than last year, when we finished #37 in T-Rank, #34 in Kenpom, and an early (and disappointing) exit as a #8 seed. Where is the expected improvement coming from?

Bigs: Armando Bacot (Jr), Brady Manek (Sr), Dawson Garcia (So), Will Shaver (Fr), Jalen Washington ('22 Fr) Wings: Kerwin Walton (So), Leaky Black (Sr), Justin McKoy (Jr), Puff Johnson (So), Dontrez Styles (Fr), Tyler Nickel ('22 Fr) Combos: RJ Davis (So), Anthony Harris (So), Demarco Dunn (Fr) Points: Caleb Love (So), Seth Trimble ('22 Fr) When Will Shaver enrolls in January we'll have a filled up 13 scholarship roster for this season. If all the non-seniors stay we'll be at 14 for 2022-2023, but you'd expect at least one of Bacot/Garcia/Love will turn pro. It's a well rounded roster, especially this coming season if we can get stronger play from Love and Davis. The needs are still impact playmaking guards, and moving forward potentially another big depending on the early depending on what Bacot and Garcia do. Categories |
AuthorI'm a UNC grad and big-time Heels fan. I launched this site in October 2021 because I felt like there was a dearth of analytics for UNC basketball fans and wanted a spot to speculate, comment, and scrutinize all things UNC hoops. Hope you enjoy! Archives
