Last Season Aside, UNC Basketball Has History Of Redemption

Posted Jun 8, 2023
The 2022-23 North Carolina Basketball team fell short in its quest for redemption, which is rare for the Tar Heels, given their history. The 1982 Tar Heels did it, though. So did the 1993 Heels. The 2005 squad, 2009 and, of course, 2017 did. Each story is different, but each were fueled by something deep within to make amends for whatever previously transpired. (Tar Heel Illustrated)
