## Resource

The assumption had been that UNC would finish filling out their roster either through the transfer portal or the International ranks, but Joe Tipton reported on Monday that the Tar Heels are in contact with LSU de-commit Kevin Thomas. The 4-star SF will visit Carolina on Tuesday. Is there any hope that Henri Veesaar comes back to UNC? Will the Tar Heels be a regional host for baseball? And how does baseball postseason work?
