As of right now, the Tar Heels have done a good job in the portal, and the rankings show that. The updated 247Sports class rankings combine the recruiting class and the transfer portal class. For North Carolina, the Tar Heels currently rank No. 5 overall with a score of 67.80.

Despite a lackluster UNC basketball campaign, Cade Tyson is now garnering considerable interest in the portal.

One player the Tar Heels were connected to was forward Kanon Catchings, the f ormer four-star recruit who spent one season at BYU before entering the portal. North Carolina was considered the favorite to land him ahead of his visit this past weekend. But now, things are going in a different direction.
