Tar Heels sans Paige and Johnson will look strange, but UNC is in good shape
Posted Apr 6, 2016
It will be all kinds of strange to see the Tar Heels take the court this fall without Marcus Paige or Brice Johnson, the two long-time starters who have exhausted their eligibility in Chapel Hill. So what about the 2016-17 Tar Heels? UNC is ranked No. 4 in Sporting News’ way-too-early Top 25, so we pretty clearly think the Heels will be back in a big way.
