Show notes

After a week off, North Carolina returned to action on Saturday against Pittsburgh with plenty of things to work on and plenty of chances to salvage something from the season.

The Postgame: Razor Thin Win Feb 09, 2025

Show notes

North Carolina’s one point win was not pretty, but there are no pictures on a scorecard and the Heels had to have Saturday night’s rematch with Pittsburgh if a NCAA Tournament bid remains anything beyond wishful thinking.

Signing Day Dish: Completing UNC's 2025 Recruiting Class Feb 05, 2025

Show notes

Since the early December signing day was implemented, February has been a slower month for North Carolina football recruiting. The former coaching staff chose to have the applicable high school class locked in and mostly enrolled early and while early enrollees are a big part of the UNC 2025 class, Bill Belichick and his team of recruiters have remained in catch up mode, loading in the rest of this year’s recruiting class both from the portal and the high school ranks. Inside Carolina’s football recruiting expert Don Callahan and analyst Greg Barnes join host Tommy Ashley for a Signing Day Dish to detail the past days and weeks of the Belichick era so far from the talent acquisition side of the program rebuild.

Up in the Rafters: Carolina Basketball Falling Drastically Short of Standard Feb 05, 2025

Show notes

Inside Carolina's Taylor Vippolis is joined by National Champion and Final Four Most Outstanding Player Joel Berry, from the ACC Network, to break down the latest in Carolina Basketball including a humiliating loss at Duke where the final score doesn't do the game justice. In the episode, Vippolis and Berry discuss how the game was essentially over by the first media timeout. Berry compares the Carolina Basketball program of late to a roller coaster with the team's performances fluctuating year to year, which has never been the norm for the standard that Carolina Basketball has set. Finally, they take questions from listeners, featuring Hubert Davis announcing a GM role will be coming to the program.

Special: Reniya Kelly, The Engine for Carolina WBB Feb 04, 2025

Show notes

Courtney Banghart’s North Carolina team has flown somewhat under the radar this season but after a northern California sweep last week, the Heels stand at 20-4 overall, 8-3 in the ACC and ranked 13th in the country. A big part of the rise has been the play of sophomore point guard Reniya Kelly and her ability to run the talented team with precision. Kelly joins Inside Carolina’s Jeremiah Holloway and Tommy Ashley to talk not only ball, but how she came to be such an important piece of this season’s success.
