CHAPEL HILL, N.C. --- On paper, the 2018-19 Tar Heels provide the balance of talent and experience that Roy Williams desires. The three seniors are not only tested with a wealth of big-time game experience, but they are reliable and talented players.

There is depth at every position on the floor, including some now experienced reserve players who should be able to be counted on in tight moments. On top of that, a flash of new talent is injected into the rotation in the form of the highly touted freshman class that is expected to contribute immediately.

At UNC's Media Day on Tuesday inside the Dean E. Smith Center, Williams commented on a variety of topics related to the 2018-19 team. Questions remain at the final big man spot and the competition is still fierce for who claims the starting point guard role. Outside of those two openings in the lineup, Williams feels good about the team leadership, the seniors, and what the freshmen have shown so far, just six or seven days into practice.

While practice continues, the real live action starts soon with Late Night with Roy on Friday and two scrimmage or exhibition games the next two weekends. Here are the key remarks from Williams at Media Day.
