Top 30 UNC Basketball Teams Of All-Time: No. 21 - 1980-81

Tue Jun 9, 2020
The 1980-81 Tar Heels were 18-6 at one point and 22-7 a few weeks later. Not exactly what you'd expect from a North Carolina team ranked among the top 30 in the program's history. But they developed into an outstanding team by March. They were led by Al Wood and James Worthy, and relied heavily on freshmen Sam Perkins and Matt Doherty. (Tar Heel Illustrated)
