The Tar Heels fell just short of winning the national title however the season can still be called a unqualified success. UNC won the ACC regular season and tournament titles, played some of its best basketball in March and April but faced a Villanova team that was just little bit better. That shouldn't make UNC season any less impressive than it was, especially as you dig into the numbers.
According to KenPom, UNC finished with an adjusted offensive efficiency of 124.1 breaking the 100 mark in every game except one, the loss at Louisville. UNC's rating is the highest ever for a Roy Williams team at UNC and tied for 2nd best since KenPom began publishing these metrics in 2002.
