The Tar Heels own several impressive streaks in the history of college basketball. They appeared in either the NCAA Tournament or [[National Invitation Tournament]] (NIT) every year from 1967 to 2001. This includes 27 straight appearances in the NCAA tourney from 1975 (the first year that competition allowed more than one team from a conference to get a guaranteed bid) to 2001--the longest such streak in tournament history. The Tar Heels also notched 37 straight winning seasons from 1964 to 2001--the second-longest such streak in NCAA history, behind only UCLA's streak of 54 consecutive winning seasons from 1948 to 2002. Presently, the streak of consecutive tournament appearances is the only one that is seriously threatened; [[Arizona Wildcats men's basketball|Arizona]] has appeared in 24 straight NCAA Tournaments since 1984. |

The University of North Carolina's men's basketball program is a successful college basketball program, considered to be "one of the dominant basketball teams in the NCAA history."[1] The Tar Heels have won four NCAA championships and 17 Atlantic Coast Conference tournament titles. The program is well-known for its famous alumni, such as Michael Jordan, coaching history, and a rivalry with the Duke University Blue Devils (a team located only eight miles away in Durham, North Carolina). The rivalry is widely regarded as one of the most intense in all of sports.[2]
The Tar Heels have a 73.6% all-time winning percentage, winning 1,952 games and losing 699 games in the 98 seasons from the team's first season in 1910-11 to the most recent season, 2007-08.[3][4] The Tar Heels also have the most consecutive 20-win seasons, with 31 seasons from the 1970-71 seasons through 2000-2001 season.[5] On January 21, 2007, North Carolina became only the second college basketball program to reach 1,900 wins in its history. The University of Kentucky was the only previous school to reach this mark. The Kansas Jayhawks have since become the third team to reach 1,900 wins.
The Tar Heels have won the NCAA Men's Division I Basketball Tournament four times, have appeared in the NCAA finals eight times, have participated in 17 NCAA Final Fours, and have made it into the NCAA tournament 40 times. North Carolina has also won the National Invitation Tournament tournament, appeared in two NIT Semifinals, and has made five appearances in the NIT Tournament. Additionally, the team has been the number one seed in the NCAA Tournament 12 times, the latest being in 2008 (most #1 seeds all-time)[6], has been ranked in the top 25 AP Poll 703 times (1st all-time).[7], has beaten #1 teams a record 12 times[7], has the most consecutive 20-win seasons, with 31.[8] and has the most consecutive top-3 ACC finishes with 37.[8]. North Carolina has had a top twenty-five final ranking among Division I schools 42 times as ranked by the Associated Press and 44 times as ranked by the Coaches Poll. In five instances the North Carolina Tar Heels have ended the season with a number one ranking in the Associated Press, and the North Carolina Tar Heels have also been ranked number one five times at the end of the season by the Coaches' Poll. In 2008 the Tar Heels received the first unanimous preseason #1 ranking in the history of the ESPN/USA Today Coaches Poll,[9] as well as the first unanimous preseason #1 ranking in the history of the Associated Press Poll.[10]
Team history
North Carolina played its first basketball game against Virginia Christian, on January 27, 1910, a 42-21 win for North Carolina.[7] Since then the Tar Heels have amassed an all-time 1,952-699 (.736) record.[7] North Carolina's 1,952 wins are second all time, behind the University of Kentucky's 1,966 wins.
In 1921 North Carolina joined the Southern Conference.[11] The 1924 Tar Heels squad went 26-0 and was retroactively awarded the national championship by the Helms Athletic Foundation in 1936.[12] 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 were winners of the regular season for nine times and won the Southern Conference Championships 8 times.
In 1953, North Carolina split off from the Southern Conference and became a founding member of the Atlantic Coast Conference.[13] The Tar Heels won their first NCAA Championship under coach Frank McGuire in 1957, which was led by Lennie Rosenbluth and several other transplants from the New York City area. C.D. Chesley, a Washington, D.C. television producer, piped the 1957 championship game in Kansas City to a hastily-created network of stations across North Carolina, which helped proved pivotal in basketball becoming a craze in the state.[14]. The 1957 National Championship game versus Kansas was the only triple overtime contest in championship history.[15]
McGuire was forced to resign in 1961 after an NCAA violation regarding "improper recruiting entertainment"[16] and was replaced by one of his assistants, Dean Smith.
Smith coached the Tar Heels from 1961 to 1997 and brought an unprecedented level of success to the team. When Smith retired in 1997, he had the most wins ever of any NCAA Division I men's basketball coach with 879 wins, and the 9th highest winning percentage (77.6%)[17][18]During Smith's time as head coach, North Carolina won the ACC regular season championship 17 times, won the ACC tournament 13 times, won the NIT in 1971, went to the NCAA tournament 27 times, appeared in 11 final fours, and won two NCAA national tournament titles, in 1982 and 1993.[19] The 1982 National Championship team was led by James Worthy, Sam Perkins, and a young Michael Jordan. The 1993 National Championship team starred Donald Williams, George Lynch and Eric Montross. While at North Carolina, Smith helped promote desegregation by recruiting the University’s first African American scholarship basketball player Charlie Scott.[20]
Smith unexpectedly retired before the start of practice for the 1997–98 season. He was succeeded by Bill Guthridge, who had been an assistant coach at the school for 30 years, the last 25 as Smith's top assistant. In his three seasons as head coach Guthridge led the Tar Heels to the NCAA Final Four twice, in the 1998 tournament and again in the 2000 tournament. Carolina reached the Final Four in 2000 as an 8-seed, their lowest seeding in a Final Four appearance.[21]
Guthridge retired in 2000 and North Carolina turned to Matt Doherty, the head coach at Notre Dame and a player on the 1982 championship team, to lead the Tar Heels.[22] Doherty had mixed success while at Carolina. In his first season, the Heels were ranked #1 in the polls in the middle of the Atlantic Coast Conference schedule and finished with a 26–7 record. But Doherty's second season was the worst in recent history as the Tar Heels finished the season with a record of 8–20, missing postseason play entirely for the first time since the 1965–66 season (including a record 26 straight NCAA Tournament appearances) and finishing with a losing record for the first time since 1962 (Dean Smith's first year as coach). They also finished 4–12 in the ACC—only the program's second 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 place—the program's first finish below fourth place ever. The season also saw the end of UNC's run of 31 straight 20-win seasons and 35 straight seasons of finishing third or higher in the ACC. After bringing in one of the top 5 incoming classes for the 2002–2003 season, the Tar Heels started the season by knocking off a top 5 Kansas team and going on to win the Preseason NIT and returning to the AP top 25. Carolina went on to finish the season 17–15, barely missing the NCAA tournament. Matt Doherty led the Tar Heels to the third round of the NIT where they ened their season with a loss to Georgetown. Despite the turnaround from the year before and the late season playoff run, at the end of the season Matt Doherty was replaced as head coach by Roy Williams, the longtime coach at Kansas--and before then, an assistant to Smith for 11 years.
Roy Williams first season was a moderate success. The Tar Heels finished 19–11 and was ranked in a final media poll for the first time in three years. They returned to the NCAA tournament and were ousted in the second round by Texas. A year later, Williams led the Tar Heels to the school's fourth national championship and his first as a head coach.[23] After winning the championship, Williams had to deal with the departure of the team's top seven scorers. Most thought that 2005-06 would be a down season for Williams, but the Tar Heels proved to be surprisingly successful in part due to the help of the freshman Tyler Hansbrough. Williams was named Coach of the Year for his ability to turn around such a new team to such a high level of success. The Tar Heels have since added two other ACC titles to their ledger, sweeping the regular season and tournament titles in 2007 and 2008. The 2008 ACC Tournament was the first time North Carolina has ever won the ACC Tournament without defeating at least one in-state rival during the tournament.[24]
Streaks
The Tar Heels own several impressive streaks in the history of college basketball. They appeared in either the NCAA Tournament or National Invitation Tournament (NIT) every year from 1967 to 2001. This includes 27 straight appearances in the NCAA tourney from 1975 (the first year that competition allowed more than one team from a conference to get a guaranteed bid) to 2001--the longest such streak in tournament history. The Tar Heels also notched 37 straight winning seasons from 1964 to 2001--the second-longest such streak in NCAA history, behind only UCLA's streak of 54 consecutive winning seasons from 1948 to 2002. Presently, the streak of consecutive tournament appearances is the only one that is seriously threatened; Arizona has appeared in 24 straight NCAA Tournaments since 1984.
From the ACC's inception in 1953 to 2001, the Tar Heels did not finish worse than a tie for fourth place in ACC play. From 1965 onward, they did not finish worse than a tie for third, and from 1965 to 1986 they did not finish worse than a tie for second. Neither of these streaks have been seriously threatened by another ACC team; during this time the ACC's other six charter members finished first at least once and last at least once, and only Clemson has won a tournament title a lot.
All of these streaks ended in the 2001–02 season, when the Tar Heels finished 8–20 on the season under coach Matt Doherty. They also finished tied for 7th in conference play, behind Florida State and Clemson--only their second losing conference record ever (the first being in the ACC's inaugural season).
Additionally, the Tar Heels hold an interesting and unique record in terms of a recurrent head-to-head rivalry. Since the first game in 1926 at Chapel Hill, the Tar Heels have lost 53 consecutive home games against Clemson, which has never lost to the Tar Heels in Chapel Hill, current as of the 2007-08 season.[25] The 53rd consecutive win is an NCAA record.
North Carolina has appeared in 40 NCAA Tournaments, tied for second all-time behind UCLA (40) and Kentucky (49).[26]

UNC Junior Varsity Basketball Team
Junior varsity teams were originally used at Carolina as freshman teams because freshmen were not allowed to play on the varsity team until the 1970s.
After most schools decided to get rid of their teams Carolina's staff decided they wanted to keep the team so that non-scholarship students were all given the chance to play basketball for UNC. Carolina also uses their J.V. team as a way for varsity assistant coaches to gain experience as a head coach. Roy Williams was a J.V. coach for eight years before he took the helm as the head coach of the varsity team.
Students at UNC are only allowed to play on the team for two years, and then they are given a chance to try out for the varsity. The J.V. team also serves as a way for coaches to evaluate players for two years on the J.V. so they will better know what to expect when they try out for varsity later in their careers.
UNC's J.V. team plays a combination of teams from Division II and III schools, some community colleges, and a few prep schools from around the North Carolina area.
