Locked On Tar Heels - Daily Podcast On North Carolina Tar Heels Football & Basketball Locked On Podcast Network

The Tar Heels, on Wednesday, made their sixth offer in the class of 2026, this one going to Finnish player Miikka Muurinen (whose mom played for UNC!). Muurinen, at 6’10, can do a little bit of everything and is going to be a great PF for whoever lands his services. Muurinen had a strong showing at Peach Jam, including shooting 50% from three. Jasper Johnson has cut his list to five schools – UNC, Kentucky, Arkansas, Louisville, and Alabama. Also…an interesting update concerning New Zealand’s Julius Halaifonua.

The Tar Heels attended ACC Football Kickoff on Thursday, represented by Conner Harrell, Max Johnson, Power Echols, Kaimon Rucker, and Omarion Hampton, along with JJ Jones acting as a reporter.

Ross Dellenger from Yahoo reports that we might be getting additional scholarships in college athletics.

There are 14 Tar Heels competing in the Olympics. Congrats to Diamond Heels’ pitcher Dalton Pence who has signed with the Rangers.

The North Carolina Tar Heels men’s basketball team officially released their 2024-25 non-conference schedule on Wednesday, which includes 12 matchups during the regular season – five games at the Dean E. Smith Center, five games at neutral sites, and two games in true road environments. North Carolina will play 12 non-conference games instead of the typical 11 because of playing a true road game at Hawai’I, which the NCAA rulebook allows to not count against the max 31 regular season games. Coach Bill Robinson also discusses the possibility of playing “5-out” this year and what that looks like.



The non-conference schedule is as follows:

11/4 | Monday | vs. Elon
11/8 | Friday | at Kansas
11/15 | Friday | vs. American
11/22 | Friday | at Hawaii
11/25 | Monday | Maui Invitational
11/26 | Tuesday | Maui Invitational
11/27 | Wednesday | Maui Invitational
12/4 | Wednesday | vs. Alabama (ACC-SEC Challenge)
12/14 | Saturday | vs. LaSalle
12/17 | Tuesday | vs. Florida (Jumpman Invitational)
12/21 | Saturday | vs. UCLA (CBS Sports Classic)
12/29 | Sunday | vs. Campbell

It’s week 4 of the 2024-25 UNC Basketball Summer Roster Preview Series. In the first three installments, we worked our way through the three incoming freshmen: James Brown, Ian Jackson, and Drake Powell. We now turn to the sophomores, starting with Zayden High. High has an opportunity to make a big sophomore leap with so many minutes available in the front court. How will Coach Hubert Davis distribute the minutes to the combination of High, Ven-Allen Lubin, Jalen Washington, Jae’lyn Withers, and James Brown? With High’s motor and extra muscle added, he’s got a chance to make a real impact in year two.

It’s the time of year where lots happens in college basketball recruiting – from visits scheduled to narrowing down school lists to scholarships offered to commitments made. Hubert Davis and the North Carolina Tar Heels have been in on that this offeseason. We discussed the UNC scholarship offer to class of 2026’s Caleb Holt yesterday. Today we add into the mix offers to Isaiah Denis (2025) and Jordan Smith (2026). Additionally, we discuss Braylon Mullins, a 2025 SG who has narrowed his college choice down to a “who’s who” top 10 list.

Coach Hubert Davis and the Tar Heels have made their fourth scholarship offer in the class of 2026, and this one is to elite, 5-star guard Caleb Holt from Alabama. Holt has won a state championship in each of his first two years of high school and won a gold medal with Team USA at the FIB U17 World Cup this summer, despite being still 16.

New Zealand big man Julius Halaifonua has decided to re-classify to 2024 and join a school for this upcoming season. He and programs will have to move quickly since schools being in right around a month. Beyond that the NCAA calendar makes scheduling a visit in the next couple of weeks a tricky endeavor.

ACC Football Kickoff begins today, and North Carolina will be in attendance on Thursday. NBA Summer League wraps up tonight; Armando Bacot finally got more minutes on Sunday and made the most of them.

Peach Jam wrapped up on Sunday with multiple UNC targets participating in the championship game, including Cameron and Cayden Boozer, Tyran Stokes, and Caleb Wilson.

The first three years of the Hubert Davis era at North Carolina have seen a departure from the Roy Williams era in terms of utilization of minutes allocation. Coach Williams more liberally spread minutes around his roster. Coach Davis has had a heavier reliance on his starters, including the so-called Iron Five in his first season at the helm of the Tar Heels (RJ Davis, Caleb Love, Leaky Black, Brady Manek, and Armando Bacot). Host Isaac Schade gives his projections for how Coach Davis will spread around the minutes to his 11 scholarship players this season – RJ Davis, along with Elliot Cadeau, Jalen Washington, Jae’lyn Withers, Seth Trimble, Zayden High, Cade Tyson, Ven-Allen Lubin, Ian Jackson, Drake Powell, and James Brown.

Class of 2025 C Eric Reibe released his top 11 schools and included the Tar Heels. How is the frontcourt shaping up for Carolina in the 2025-26 season?
