It was announced last week that the Tar Heels will host Radford and UC Riverside. Now we have the opponent for UNC’s game in the second Jumpman Classic in Charlotte.
Per Jon Rothstein, North Carolina will face the Oklahoma Sooners in Charlotte as part of the event. Michigan will face Florida in the other game for the event. The matchups will be officially announced at a later date.
