North Carolina's first ACC series against Virginia ended in dramatic walk-off fashion as freshman Tyler Howe tied the game in the bottom of the ninth and won it in the 12th inning. The performance kept the broom out of Cavalier hands and while the Wahoos still got the series win, Scott Forbes's team found out how important staying in the fight and playing clean baseball translates into the win column.  Coach Forbes joins Tommy Ashley to discuss the past weekend, the lessons learned across the program and the week ahead with a Bucknell visit on Tuesday and a long road trip to California to face the Golden Bears in Berkeley this weekend. **Call to Action:** **Subscribe:** Follow 'Inside Carolina' wherever you get your podcasts to never miss an episode! **Review:** Leave us a 5-star review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify to help us reach more Tar Heel fans! **Visit:** Explore http://www.InsideCarolina.com for breaking news, recruiting updates, and expert commentary on all things UNC sports.This show is brought to you by Inside Carolina, the No. 1 site for UNC sports coverage and community.

Omar Kelly joins the show to break down the Miami Dolphins' quarterback situation and offseason strategy. He says the team is likely out on Malik Willis and continues to push the idea that keeping Tua Tagovailoa could be the simplest move, though it doesn't financially benefit the Dolphins. Joe and Omar also discuss the broader QB market, including Kyler Murray, Geno Smith, and Kirk Cousins, and debate whether bringing in a veteran quarterback to mentor the roster could help.

He breaks down the current QB market, including Kyler Murray, Kirk Cousins, and Geno Smith, calling Murray the most intriguing option available. Ross also weighs in on the possibility of the Dolphins signing Malik Willis and gives his take on the Ravens' blockbuster trade, where they gave up two first-round picks for Maxx Crosby

Hour 1 begins with the crew reacting to the Miami Heat winning their fifth straight game and Bam Adebayo reaching the 10,000-point milestone. The guys also discuss the electric crowds at the World Baseball Classic, debating the tournament's mercy rule and the spending gap in Major League Baseball, while also touching on the attendance struggles of the Miami Marlins. In the NFL, they react to the Baltimore Ravens trading two first-round picks for Maxx Crosby and preview the chaos of free agency as teams prepare to make big roster moves. The conversation also turns to the uncertain future of Tua Tagovailoa with the Miami Dolphins, plus a quick look at Lionel Messi and the massive value of Inter Miami.

The Miami Dolphins officially part ways with Tua Tagovailoa, bringing the quarterback's era in Miami to an end. Joe shares his initial reaction, noting that while it's a big move, it wasn't entirely unexpected. Both Tua and the Dolphins took to Instagram to publicly thank each other, keeping the mood professional and positive. Joe says everyone will “Play Nice” today as the quarterback hits free agency.

The Miami Dolphins officially part ways with Tua Tagovailoa, ending his time in Miami. The crew looks back at Tua's career, noting key moments like Mike McDaniel benching him after an ugly game in Pittsburgh, and discusses how Jon-Eric Sullivan's roster rebuild played a role in this decision. They reflect on the controversial contract extension signed under Chris Grier and debate whether Tua will get another chance as a starting quarterback elsewhere this offseason. The release was expected, but the discussion dives into the impact of his time in Miami and what it means for both Tua and the Dolphins moving forward.

Hour 2 dives into the quarterback situation for the Miami Dolphins as NFL free agency gets underway. Joe explains why having the right veteran QB to mentor younger players can be a game-changer, sparking a debate over potential options like Malik Willis and Geno Smith, and whether Willis could reignite excitement for the fanbase despite Miami's tight salary cap. Omar Kelly joins to break down the Dolphins' QB strategy, saying the team is likely out on Willis and pushing the idea that keeping Tua Tagovailoa could be the simplest move, while also weighing the broader QB market including Kyler Murray, Geno Smith, and Kirk Cousins. The hour wraps with Hollywood's Headlines, covering Auburn's NCAA Tournament plea, Dak Prescott calling off his wedding, and a woman being removed from a plane for playing videos too loudly.

The crew breaks down the latest NFL offseason buzz as free agency approaches and teams around the league begin cutting players and exploring trades. They react to the Ravens giving up two first-round picks for Maxx Crosby, debating whether that price is too steep. The conversation also shifts to the bigger AFC picture and which team currently stands as the conference favorite. Closer to home, the guys discuss the difficult position facing the Miami Dolphins, why the team may be entering a rebuilding phase, and why it would be a mistake to give up a high draft pick just to move on from Tua Tagovailoa.

With NFL free agency getting underway, the crew dives into the quarterback market and what it could mean for the Miami Dolphins. Joe explains why having the right veteran quarterback in the building can make a huge difference in mentoring younger players and shaping a locker room. That leads to a debate about potential options like Malik Willis and Geno Smith, and whether Willis could bring some excitement back to the Dolphins fanbase. The guys also discuss Miami's difficult financial situation and how their tight salary cap could limit what they're able to do this offseason.

The crew discusses the electric atmosphere at the World Baseball Classic, where packed crowds and passionate fans have made the event feel like October baseball. That leads to a debate about the tournament's mercy rule and whether something like that belongs in professional sports. They also break down the tournament favorites—Japan, USA, and Dominican Republic—as the competition heats up in the next rounds. The conversation then shifts to the Miami Marlins and the challenge of building a fanbase in Miami, sparking a larger discussion about parity in Major League Baseball and how spending big—similar to NIL in college sports—has become essential for teams that want to win.

Hollywood's Headlines includes Auburn's coach making a last-ditch plea for the team to make the NCAA Tournament despite a resume that doesn't quite add up, Dak Prescott calling off his wedding after a joint bachelor/bachelorette party went sideways, and a woman being kicked off a plane for playing videos too loudly on her phone.
