Kentucky (No. 2) and North Carolina (No. 4) are bringing in some of the most accomplished freshman classes in the nation. UK needs its freshmen to produce right away because of the mass exodus of talent from Lexington to the NBA. UNC needs its freshmen to produce immediately because no one who wears Carolina blue wants to suffer through another mediocre season. That means players such as Enes Kanter, Brandon Knight and Doron Lamb at Kentucky and Harrison Barnes, Reggie Bullock and Kendall Marshall at North Carolina will be under the microscope next season.
