Squad history [edit]

Early years (1910–1953) [edit]

North Carolina played its starting time game on January 27, 1911, beating Virginia Christian 42–21 at Bynum Gymnasium, the team'southward home from 1911 to 1923.[14] The squad'south first passenger vehicle was Nat Cartmell. Cartmell was charged with illegally playing dice with known gamblers and was fired later the 1913–14 flavor.[xix] He would be replaced by Charles Doak.[19]

In the 1914–15 flavour, UNC joined the SAIAA, and would compete in the briefing through the 1920–21 season.[15] The 1917–18 team went 9–3 (7–0 at home) to finish 3rd in the SAIAA. On January 24, 1920, N Carolina beat Trinity College (Duke), 36–25, in the first-e'er game of the Carolina-Duke rivalry.[fifteen]

SoCon years [edit]

In 1921, the schoolhouse joined the Southern Conference.[20] Overall, the Tar Heels played 32 seasons in the Southern Conference from 1921 to 1953. During that period they won 304 games and lost 111 for a winning percentage of 73.3%. The Tar Heels won the Southern Briefing regular season championship ix times and the Southern Conference Tournament 8 times.

In 1924, the Tar Heels moved to the Tin can for home games. From 1924 to 1938, UNC would go 130-xx (.867 winning percentage) at the Tin Can. Rudimentarily built of steel, attempts to heat the Can Tin can failed, with ice ofttimes forming within:

The Can Can was e'er freezing [...] they had icicles in the corners. To stay warm the electricians put those large-wattage bulbs under the benches, and we had blankets and wore heavy sweat clothes. Afterwards on they did get central heat in there, only information technology was never adequate. You couldn't dress there.

—George Shephard, Northward Carolina coach 1931-35, University of North Carolina Basketball

On February 29, 1924, UNC beat Kentucky, 41–20, in the first-ever game of the Kentucky–North Carolina rivalry. The 1923–24 Tar Heels squad went 26–0, and was awarded a national championship by the Helms Athletic Foundation in 1943 and later by the Premo-Porretta Ability Poll.[21] [22] In Northward Carolina's first 5 seasons in the SoCon (from 1921–22 to 1925–26), they went 96–17, won four SoCon regular season championships, and 4 SoCon tournament championships.[fifteen] Their fast fashion of play and stingy defense earned these teams the nickname "White Phantoms", used every bit an alternative nickname for the Tar Heels into the 1940s.

Cartwright Carmichael was the first Tar Heel to earn first-team All-America honors in any sport in 1923, and was once more selected in 1924. Jack Cobb was UNC'due south outset three-time All-America (1924, 1925, 1926), and was named Helms Foundation Histrion of the Year in 1926. George Glamack followed adapt in 1940 and 1941, being named Helms Foundation Player of the Year also. Both, Cobb and Glamack, are honored with their numbers being retired (Cobb did not accept a number).[fifteen]

In 1939, the Tar Heels relocated their habitation arena to the Woollen Gymnasium, where they would play until 1965. On March 21, 1946, under Hall of Fame motorbus Ben Carnevale and All-Americans Hook Dillon and Jim Jordan, N Carolina beat NYU, 57–49, for their first win in the NCAA Tournament ever. Later in the 1946 NCAA Tournament, UNC advanced to their first ever Final Four. Oklahoma A&K would beat UNC, 43–forty, in the championship game.[15]

For almost of the kickoff 4 decades of the plan's history, North Carolina had very little consistency at the head coaching position, reflecting the lack of emphasis on the sport in much of the Due south at the time. The first passenger vehicle, Cartmell, doubled as the rails motorbus. From 1923 to 1926, 3 coaches led the program in equally many years. Norman Shepard led the squad to an undefeated flavour in 1923–24 while attending law school. He was succeeded past one of his players, medical educatee Monk McDonald, who in turn gave way to Harlan Sanborn. Other early coaches included baseball game coaches Charles Doak and James Ashmore and assistant football double-decker Bill Lange. All told, from 1910 to 1946, no charabanc stayed in Chapel Colina longer than five years. Carnevale, who led UNC to its first Last Four, left after only ii years. Tom Scott ran the programme for six years from 1946 to 1952, but was pushed out in favor of Frank McGuire after two consecutive losing years.

Frank McGuire (1953–1961) [edit]

The mod era of Tar Heel basketball began in 1952, when Scott was pushed out afterwards two sequent losing easons in favor of St. John'due south caput jitney Frank McGuire. aSchool officials wanted a big-proper name autobus to counter the rising of North Carolina State under Everett Instance.

On Dec 1, 1952, McGuire coached his first game at UNC with a 70–fifty win over The Citadel.[xv] In 1953, Northward Carolina split from the Southern Conference and became a founding member of the Atlantic Coast Conference.[23] On December 12, 1953, UNC beat South Carolina, 82–56, in their commencement ACC game ever. On Dec 14, 1955, UNC routed outed then-#5 Alabama 99-77. It was UNC'southward get-go defeat of a nonconference opponent ranked in the pinnacle ten of a major media poll. On January 14, 1956, All-American Lennie Rosenbluth scored 45 points in a 103–99 win at Clemson. On February 24, 1956, Rosenbluth had 31 points in a 73–65 win over Duke to assure UNC'due south start-e'er ACC regular-season championship (shared with N.C. State). The post-obit season, in 1956–57, Lennie Rosenbluth scored 40 in a Tar Heel win at Duke to finish with a perfect 24–0 regular season record (14–0 in ACC). Rosenbluth was named 1957 Helms Foundation Player of the Year. Furthermore, in 1957, the Tar Heels won their first ACC Tournament and kickoff NCAA Championship. On March 23, 1957, No. 1 North Carolina trounce Wilt Chamberlain and No. two Kansas, 54–53, in triple overtime as Carolina capped off a perfect 32–0 flavor every bit national champions.[15] C.D. Chesley, a Washington, D.C. tv producer, piped the 1957 championship game in Kansas City to a hastily created network of five stations across North Carolina—the antecedent to the longstanding syndicated ACC football and basketball game parcel from Raycom Sports—which helped testify pivotal in basketball condign a craze in the state.[24] The title game was the only triple overtime last game in championship history,[25] which followed a triple overtime Northward Carolina defeat of Michigan State 74–70 the previous night.

In 1960, the Tar Heels were placed on NCAA probation for "improper recruiting entertainment" of basketball prospects. Every bit a effect, they were barred from the 1961 NCAA tournament[26] and also withdrew from the 1961 ACC Tournament. Following the flavor, Chancellor William Aycock forced McGuire to resign. Every bit a replacement, Aycock selected ane of McGuire's administration, Kansas alumnus Dean Smith.

Dean Smith (1961–1997) [edit]

Larry Miller led UNC to Final Four appearances in 1967 and 1968.

On December two, 1961, Carolina beat Virginia, 80–46, in Dean Smith'southward first game as caput motorbus.[xv] Smith's early on teams were non near as successful every bit McGuire's had been. His get-go team went just 8–nine, the last losing season UNC would suffer for twoscore years.[27] On January thirteen, 1964, All-American Deakon Patrick scored twoscore and had 28 rebounds in 97–88 win over Maryland.[xv] On Dec 4, 1965, UNC beat William and Mary, 82–68, in the commencement game played at UNC'due south new home, Carmichael Auditorium. On December xvi, 1965, Bobby Lewis scored a current UNC-record 49 points in 115–80 win over Florida Land.[15] Smith'south first five teams never won more than than 16 games. This grated on a fan base used to winning; in 1965 some of them even hanged him in figure. Smith would become on to accept the Tar Heels to a reign of championships and national authority.[27] On March 17, 1967, Northward Carolina beat Princeton for Dean Smith's beginning NCAA Tournament win. Afterwards, in the 1967 NCAA Tournament, UNC vanquish Boston Higher to advance to Dean Smith's showtime Final Four, where they would lose to Dayton in the national semifinal. In 1968, Carolina appeared in their second sequent Concluding Iv. On March 23, 1968, they loss to Lew Alcindor and UCLA for the national title.

On March 25, 1995, North Carolina beat Kentucky, 74–61, to advance to another Last Four. UNC would autumn to Arkansas, in the national semifinal. On March 15, 1997, North Carolina beat Colorado, 73–56, in the NCAA Tournament 2d circular for Dean Smith's 877th win, breaking Adolph Rupp'south all-time record for coaches. On March 23, 1997, the Tar Heels beat Louisville, 97–74, for some other Final Four appearance. Smith would coach his last game, a 66–58 loss to Arizona in the national semifinal, on March 29, 1997. After 36 years as head omnibus, Smith retired on October 9, 1997.[fifteen] When he retired, Smith'due south 879 wins were the near e'er for any NCAA Division I men'southward basketball game coach (currently 5th best).[28] During his tenure, North Carolina won or shared 17 ACC regular-flavour titles and won thirteen ACC Tournaments. They went to the NCAA tournament 27 times–including 23 in a row from 1975 to 1997–appeared in 11 Last Fours, and won NCAA tournament titles in 1982 and 1993. The 1982 national championship squad was led past James Worthy, Sam Perkins, and a young Michael Jordan.[29] The 1993 national championship squad starred Donald Williams, George Lynch and Eric Montross.[30] While at Due north Carolina, Smith helped promote desegregation by recruiting the University's starting time African American scholarship basketball histrion Charlie Scott.[31]

Neb Guthridge (1997–2000) [edit]

Smith unexpectedly retired before the start of practice for the 1997–98 season. He was succeeded by Pecker Guthridge, who had been an banana coach at the school for 30 years, the last 25 equally Smith's tiptop assistant. During Guthridge's three seasons as head charabanc he posted an 80–28 record, making him tied for the then-NCAA tape for most wins by a double-decker afterward three seasons.[32] The Tar Heels reached the NCAA Final Iv twice, in the 1998 tournament and again in the 2000 tournament. North Carolina reached the Final Four in 2000 as an viii-seed, their lowest seeding in a Final Four appearance.[33]

Matt Doherty (2000–2003) [edit]

Guthridge retired in 2000 and North Carolina turned to Matt Doherty, the head omnibus at Notre Dame and a player on the 1982 championship team, to lead the Tar Heels.[34] Doherty had little success while at Due north Carolina. In his outset season, the Heels were ranked #one in the polls in the middle of the Atlantic Coast Briefing schedule and finished with a 26–7 record. The bottom fell out the following yr, as the Tar Heels finished the season with a record of 8–20, the worst flavour in school history. They missed postseason play entirely for the starting time time since the 1965–66 flavor (including a tape 27 directly NCAA Tournament appearances) and finished with a losing record for the first time since 1962 (Dean Smith'southward first year every bit coach). They also finished 4–12 in the ACC—only the programme'south 2d losing ACC record ever. The 12 losses were six more than the Tar Heels had ever suffered in a single season of ACC play, and placed them in a tie for 7th identify—the program's first finish below fourth place ever. The season likewise saw the end of UNC'south run of 31 direct xx-win seasons and 35 direct seasons of finishing 3rd or higher in the ACC.

After bringing in i of the top 5 incoming classes for the 2002–2003 flavour, the Tar Heels started the season past knocking off a elevation 5 Kansas squad and going on to win the Preseason NIT and returning to the AP summit 25. North Carolina went on to cease the season 17–xv, but a half dozen–10 tape in ACC play kept them out of the NCAA Tournament. Doherty led the Tar Heels to the third round of the NIT, where they ended their season with a loss to Georgetown.

Roy Williams (2003–2021) [edit]

Despite the turnaround from the twelvemonth earlier and the NIT appearance, at the finish of the flavour Matt Doherty was replaced every bit head coach by Roy Williams. Williams had served every bit an banana to Smith for 11 years before a successful xv-twelvemonth tenure at Kansas, winning ix conference regular flavour championships and taking his Jayhawk teams to iv Concluding Fours. Smith himself convinced Williams to return home. Williams had also been courted by Smith for the UNC job when it had been open in 2000, but Williams had promised Nick Collison he would be at Kansas his entire higher career, and could not bring himself to leave Kansas at that fourth dimension despite media speculation reporting Williams would take the job in 2000. Williams could not turn his mentor down a 2nd time, then just ii weeks later Doherty's resignation, Williams took the Carolina job. It was hoped[ by whom? ] that Williams would restore a measure of stability to the program. Williams was UNC'south third coach in vi years, the well-nigh turnover the plan had faced since its early years. The previous 2, McGuire and Smith, had covered a 45-yr period.

On November 22, 2003, Carolina beat Sometime Rule, 90–64, in Roy Williams' kickoff game as head coach. In Williams' first flavour, the Tar Heels finished nineteen–xi and were ranked in a final media poll for the first time in iii years. They returned to the NCAA tournament and were ousted in the second circular by Texas. The following twelvemonth, on April 4, 2005, the Tar Heels defeated Illinois, 75–70, to win their fourth NCAA title and Williams' start as a caput passenger vehicle.[35] Later on winning the championship, Williams lost his top seven scorers, but the 2005–06 season saw the arrival of freshman Tyler Hansbrough and Williams was named Coach of the Year. The Tar Heels swept the ACC regular season and tournament titles in 2007 and 2008. The 2008 ACC Tournament was the showtime fourth dimension Due north Carolina had ever won the ACC Tournament without defeating at to the lowest degree one in-land rival during the tournament.[36] North Carolina lost in the national semifinals of the 2008 NCAA tournament to Williams' former program Kansas.

Tyler Hansbrough became the ACC's best leading scorer in 2009

On December 18, 2008, Tyler Hansbrough scored his 2,292nd career signal, breaking Phil Ford'due south UNC career scoring record. In the 2008–09 flavor, the Tar Heels won their fifth NCAA title by defeating Michigan State in the championship of the 2009 NCAA Men'due south Basketball Tournament.[37] The Tar Heels won all six of that year'south tournament games by at to the lowest degree 12 points, for an average victory margin of twenty.two points, and only trailed for a total of 10 minutes out of 240 through the entire tournament.[38] Wayne Ellington was named the tournament's Most Outstanding Player, the quaternary Tar Heel and then honored.

The 2009–2010 Tar Heels struggled throughout the regular season finishing with a 16–15 record,[39] and dropped to #3 in Sectionalization I in all-time wins. They later lost in the first round of the ACC Tournament, playing in the first "play-in" Th game for the first time since the ACC grew to 12 teams. The Tar Heels did non receive an NCAA tournament bid, and instead accepted a bid to the NIT.[40] During the flavour, on March 2, 2010, Carolina beat Miami, 69–62, to become the 2d school in NCAA history to win its two,000th game (North Carolina was in its 100th season of basketball at the time of this achievement). The Tar Heels made information technology to the final game of the NIT, losing to Dayton in the terminal game finishing with a 20–17 record.

The 2010–2011 Tar Heels, with the addition of Harrison Barnes, Kendall Marshall, and Reggie Bullock, eighth in the preseason polls, struggled out the gates, starting with a ii–two record, the worst get-go since the 2001–02 flavor. Later losses to Illinois and Texas, the Tar Heels fell out of the rankings. The losses of senior Will Graves, to dismissal, and Larry Drew Ii, to transfer and also the unexpected off-season transfers of David and Travis Wear did not help matters. However, the Tar Heels improved profoundly during the conference season, finishing first in the ACC regular flavor with a 14–2 record. Williams was named Briefing Charabanc of the Twelvemonth for his efforts of getting his team to work through the adversity to finish stiff in the regular flavour.[41] Also during the season, the term Tar Heel Blueish Steel was coined, referencing the Tar Heel men's basketball walk-ons. The term was started past one of the players, Stewart Cooper, in hopes that it would exist a replacement for "walk-ons" and similar names, and presently enough Roy Williams caught on. North Carolina lost to Duke in the ACC Tournament Final and fabricated a significant run in the NCAA Tournament until they were eliminated in the Elite 8 past Kentucky, finishing with a 29–8 tape.[42]

The 2011–2012 Tar Heels flavour started on November 11, 2011, as top-ranked Carolina beat Michigan Land, 67–55, on the deck of the aircraft carrier USS Carl Vinson in San Diego. The Tar Heels finished the flavour with a record of 32–6, including a 14–two ACC tape to win the conference regular-season championship outright. The team brutal to Florida State in the championship game of the 2012 ACC Tournament and was a #1 seed in the Midwest Regional of the 2012 NCAA Tournament; the team reached the Elite 8 and was defeated past Kansas 80–67. Earlier the Kansas game, the Tar Heels won their previous three games in the NCAA Tournament past an average of thirteen.7 points. In the 2nd-round game versus Creighton, starting UNC point guard Kendall Marshall broke his right wrist with 10:56 remaining[43] in the 2nd half with UNC leading 66–l. Marshall continued to play by dribbling primarily with his left hand and left the game with ii minutes left with UNC leading 85–69.
