Pre-Pre-Preseason ACC Hoops Power Rankings
Posted Apr 8, 2010
4. North Carolina (20-16, 5-11) The Tar Heels are likely losing their two best players from a team that didn’t even deserve an NIT bid last season. Deon Thompson’s eligibility is up and Ed Davis will probably be a lottery pick. So, why should we believe they will be much better? Talent. They are adding a pair of five-star recruits - small forward Harrison Barnes and shooting guard Reggie Bullock - to a roster that’s already loaded with speed and size.
