Strongest position: Defensive backs; Key returnees: Deunta Williams, Da’Norris Searcy, Kendrick Burney and Charles Brown; Key departures: Melvin Williams; The skinny: This might be the deepest position/unit in the conference, as North Carolina returns 14 players who were defensive backs a year ago, including all four starters. UNC was 14th in the country last year in both pass efficiency defense and pass defense.
