Posted Aug 4, 2021
UNC returns arguably the country's best QB in Sam Howell, along with all five starters on the O-line. On defense, a unit that desperately needed a talent infusion two years ago now has legitimate blue-chip stars ready to contribute, including 5-star corner Tony Grimes and 5-star end Keeshawn Silver. Even the talent that left has some ready-made replacements. (ESPN.com)
