Posted Jun 4, 2020
The year after winning the 1982 national title and the season before what was almost the best team in North Carolina history stands the 1982-83 Tar Heels. The 1982-83 team was comprised of three integral parts of the '82 title and a few more key players that made 1984 nearly special. Michael Jordan was already a star, averaging 20 points per game.
