Time to be concerned about the Tar Heels?...or a result of a loaded early schedule? or more chemistry growth?

The North Carolina Tar Heels are now 4-4, the worse 8-game record since the 2001-02 season. But that season also did not feature three games against top 10 competition to start the season. So should we be concerned, or is what we're seeing a function of the schedule? Ian Jackson had a nice game against Alabama, but collectively the Tar Heels struggled, including the starting backcourt of RJ Davis, Elliot Cadeau, and Seth Trimble. Drake Powell did indeed move into the starting lineup for Jae'lyn Withers, but nothing was going to make a difference in this game. North Carolina once again suffered a double-digit first half deficit. The trend has to stop.
