North Carolina's season came to a crashing end as the familiar script of the past five years played out in Greenville, SC in the first round of the NCAA Tournament. Carolina led by 19 points in the second half only to collapse down the stretch and lose to VCU in overtime, 82-78. In the process, the Heels blown lead was the largest in UNC tournament history, the sixth largest all time in tournament history and the second largest second half lead blown in tournament history.  Inside Carolina's Sherrell McMillan and senior reporter Greg Barnes join Tommy Ashley for The Postgame and try to make sense of how Carolina's season can end after playing some of it's best basketball for 26 minutes and some of it's worst over the last 15. McMillan and Barnes highlight the mistakes that have permeated this team all season - and the program over the last several seasons - and how the VCU Rams were able to capitalize and make the Tar Heels pay.  The IC trio discusses the future of Hubert Davis and the standards of Carolina Basketball. What are those standards?  Have they changed? And what will the administration do about the situation the program finds itself in after year five of the Davis era?   **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.

Inside Carolina's senior reporter Greg Barnes joins Tommy Ashley to break down North Carolina's first round NCAA Tournament game against Virginia Commonwealth. The Heels come into Thursday's game on a two game losing streak and as Barnes points out, losing three to end a season has not happened in Chapel Hill in over 50 years.  With that, Barnes and Ashley discuss the pressure on Hubert Davis and his coaching stand and how a wins in March can alleviate that pressure or conversely, how losing can ramp up the conversations about the future direction of the UNC program.  Barnes highlights the keys to success for the Heels with Henri Veesaar and guard play key on the offensive end while interior defense and three point defense will be vital to keep a smaller but athletic Rams team in check. **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.

Hubert Davis joins Jones Angell to talk about Carolina's loss to Clemson in the ACC Tournament, preview the upcoming matchup with VCU in the First Round of the NCAA Tournament, and answer Tar Heel fan's questions.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

For the North Carolina basketball program,  reaching the Sweet Sixteen was the benchmark of success in the NCAA Tournament since Dean Smith broke through in the late 1960s. Smith's 1967-69 run of ACC regular season championships, ACC Tournament titles and Final Four berths set the standard for UNC and throughout his tenure on the Tar Heel sidelines, Smith delivered. Roy Williams did virtually the same until he retired in 2021. Hubert Davis's teams have reached that threshold in two of his four years in Chapel Hill with another tournament run beginning on Thursday against VCU. So what is the standard? What defines North Carolina success in the NCAA Tournament? Is that different for this specific team given the injuries and this year's bracket?  Inside Carolina's senior reporter Greg Barnes joins Tommy Ashley to discuss the past, present and future of Carolina in the NCAA Tournament and they include the Duke rivalry in the discussion as the Blue Devils head into their own tournament run with a sweep of the league trophies this season.   **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.

North Carolina fizzled out early in the ACC Quarterfinals and returned to Chapel Hill to await their postseason fate. Now they're officially in the "Lose-or-Go-Home" part of the season as the NCAA Tournament awaits. The usual Coast to Coast crew of Sherrell McMillan, Sean Moran and Joey Powell bring on Inside Carolina analyst Rob Harrington and senior reporter Greg Barnes to dig into UNC's real postseason chances and what the Tournament may look like as a whole. The crew focuses on the matchup with VCU. Harrington highlights UNC's six seed as a fair placement despite Caleb Wilson's absence, noting their potential to perform better against mid-major teams. Moran and McMillan emphasized the importance of Henri Veesaar's performance and the need for consistent bench contributions. Barnes notes the tough bracket in the East and South regions, with potential upsets like South Florida over Louisville. The panel agreed that UNC's success hinges on their ability to execute against VCU and maintain intensity throughout the tournament. **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.

In this week's basketball coaching conversation, Jamill Jones joins The Basketball Podcast to share insights on running an elite youth program.Jamill Jones serves as a Director with Team Takeover, one of the premier programs on the Nike EYBL circuit, where he provides leadership across elite player development, program structure, and national representation. He articulates a development‑first philosophy rooted in defense, accountability, and family culture, emphasizing long‑term growth over short‑term results.Team Takeover's model prioritizes practice over games, beginning player development as early as third grade, maintaining coaching continuity across age groups, and creating consistent standards throughout the program. Jones stresses transparent communication as a cornerstone of success, highlighted by regular parent and coach Zoom calls to align expectations and reduce common conflicts.The program's practice‑first approach, intentionally demanding practices, and supportive game‑day environment reinforce learning without public criticism. Team Takeover also avoids traditional A/B/C team labels, instead offering multiple competitive pathways to account for non‑linear player development. In addition to his grassroots leadership, Jones brings extensive collegiate experience from assistant coaching roles at Florida Gulf Coast, VCU, UCF, and Wake Forest, as well as national instructional experience through the Nike Skills Summit and other elite basketball platforms.
