Coast to Coast: Tar Heels Salvage a Split Week Jan 06, 2025

Show notes

2025 opened with two conference road matchups for North Carolina, and though the game play and effort may not have been up to the team's own standards, late game heroics from Elliot Cadeau helped UNC earn a win at Notre Dame after the Tar Heels delivered a clunker at Louisville earlier in the week. Seth Trimble's absence and continued offensive struggles were themes from both games. Sean Moran and Sherrell McMillan join Joey Powell to discuss this past week's action, as well as give a brief update on Caleb Wilson and some new 2026 recruiting offers.

The Postgame: Jackson, Cadeau Save UNC Late Jan 04, 2025

Show notes

Elliot Cadeau’s season has not gone as planned for the sophomore but in five seconds on Saturday afternoon, his ‘and 1’ game winning three was a major confidence boost and perhaps saved North Carolina’s season in the process. Cadeau’s heroics and and Ian Jackson’s 27 points were just enough for the Tar Heels to escape South Bend with a 74-73 win over Notre Dame. Inside Carolina’s Rob Harrington joins host Tommy Ashley to break down how this team managed to get over the hump in the end.

The Postgame: Late Meltdown for UNC, Again Jan 02, 2025

Show notes

If North Carolina fans expected the 2025 portion of this season to be any different than the end of last year’s part, the Tar Heel collapse over the final five minutes in Louisville provided a stark and bleak look at where this team is heading without a major course correction. The Heels clawed back to trail 70-69, but freshman Drake Powell fouled out and the Cards ran away on a 13-1 run to win 83-70. Inside Carolina’s Rob Harrington joined host Tommy Ashley to discuss what happened and what needs to happen going forward if the postseason tournaments are a possible option.

Coast to Coast: Campbell Postgame Edition Dec 30, 2024

Show notes

North Carolina spent the week away from campus since the last episode of the show, but had one last out-of-conference tuneup in the Smith Center on Sunday against Campbell University. Playing without an injured Seth Trimble, North Carolina relied on an aggressive performance from Elliot Cadeau and offensive outbursts by RJ Davis and Ian Jackson to cover up a lackadaisical team defensive performance against the Camels.

The Day After: UNC Turning the Page Dec 29, 2024

Show notes

The end of the 2024 season - and of the Mack Brown era - came to a painful end as the UConn Huskies dominated a depleted North Carolina team, 27-14, in the Fenway Bowl. An ‘audition game’ of sorts for many on the Tar Heel roster highlighted areas of both concern and potential as the Bill Belichick rebuild has officially begun in Chapel Hill. Inside Carolina’s Buck Sanders and Jason Staples join host Tommy Ashley for a look back and most importantly for the Carolina fanbase, a look ahead to what the future holds.

The Game Plan: Audition Game For Tar Heels Dec 28, 2024

Show notes

North Carolina’s trip to Boston for the Wasabi Fenway Bowl is more than just a chance to close the 2024 season on a high note. For returning Tar Heels, Saturday’s matchup presents a unique audition setting with the Bill Belichick era set to begin once the final seconds tick off in Fenway Park. Inside Carolina’s Greg Barnes, Jason Staples and Joey Powell join host Tommy Ashley for a breakdown of not only the game at hand against the UConn Huskies, but many of the angles and facets of how the last three weeks have played a role in what UNC fans could see throughout the contest.

Roundtable: Where Things Stand for UNC Football Dec 24, 2024

Show notes

Bill Belichick hit the ground running at North Carolina and as he and GM Michael Lombardi continue to mine the transfer portal for talent, the Inside Carolina crew of Buck Sanders, Jason Staples, Taylor Vippolis and host Tommy Ashley convene a roundtable to discuss where things stand for the Tar Heel program roughly three weeks into the new coach/new approach era. Recruiting expert Don Callahan joins the show for an update on the talent acquisition side of things and the panel discusses that and the recent news that Steven Belichick will take over as defensive coordinator for his father once the Washington Huskies have completed their bowl responsibilities this season.
