With both spring practice and the spring portal window in the rearview, North Carolina's roster for the 2025 season seems largely in place.

Bill Belichick and the Tar Heel coaching staff have revamped the roster through the transfer portal in recent months, adding 20 players this spring, including nine on defense.

Eight defensive players come from the Power Four ranks, and all nine from the FBS level. UNC's spring portal pledges on defense have combined for 99 career games played, 2,549 career snaps, and 246 career tackles.

In total, UNC has added:

-Four linebackers

-Three defensive lineman

-Two defensive backs
