ACC SQUAD - ACC SEASON PREVIEW | What EXPERTS say about North Carolina

Locked On Podcast Network — Thu, 20 Aug 2026 22:00:00 GMT

Miami Hurricanes enter the ACC football season as favorites, but can Darian Mensah and his squad finally get over the hump, or will Louisville, SMU, or Clemson crash the championship party? The ACC Squad debates which two teams will punch their ticket to Charlotte, spotlighting top contenders like Isaac Brown and Kevin Jennings, and examining vital matchups set to shape the playoff race. Key storylines include bold predictions for the ACC’s Heisman chances, the impact of transfers and injuries—like Jennings’ infamous hand injury—and the ever-present SEC bias. Riveting discussions cover pivotal games such as SMU vs. Louisville, Miami at Clemson, and Duke’s return trip to face Mensah and the Hurricanes. As preseason polls stir controversy and playoff aspirations soar, the hosts break down each team’s path and question if the ACC can sneak two or even three programs into the College Football Playoff.

What is the ACC Doing? - IC Daily | Inside Carolina Analysis | College Basketball/Baseball

Greg Barnes, Tommy Ashley — Thu, 20 Aug 2026 20:30:04 GMT

Inside Carolina senior reporter Greg Barnes joins Tommy Ashley to discuss the North Carolina / North Carolina State matchup in Greensboro in December - a game created due to the ACC's scheduling processing that eliminated the home and home games between the two Tobacco Road rivals. College baseball rivalries are not exempt from the ACC's process as the Diamond Heels will not face NC State or Duke in a three game series in 2027 forcing all three schools to work on non-conference game options to maintain the rivalries on the field.

Barnes and Ashley discuss the possibility of future expansion of December's Carolina/State into a revival of the Big Four Tournament once held between Carolina, NC State, Wake Forest and Duke.

What Exactly is Progress for UNC Football? - IC Daily | Inside Carolina | College Football

Greg Barnes, Tommy Ashley — Tue, 18 Aug 2026 13:37:18 GMT

Progress is mandatory in Bill Belichick's second season as head coach of North Carolina football. But what is progress? Clearly, the win total must exceed last year's four wins - regardless of how tough the schedule is perceived to be in 2026. Is that the only barometer? Does the money spent for coaching positions justify the level of expectations for the fanbase? The administration?

Inside Carolina's senior reporter Greg Barnes join Tommy Ashley to discuss all aspects of Carolina Football progress and what areas of progress are necessary this season. While the answers are not as simple as they seem up front, when it comes down to the final judgement on the season and Belichick's second year in Chapel Hill, wins and losses will likely be everything for those that follow the Tar Heels.

RELENTLESS: UNC MAKES WAVES in 2027 Recruiting, Aggressively Targets Jordan Page, 10 More Top 15 Recruits

Locked On Podcast Network — Tue, 18 Aug 2026 07:00:00 GMT

North Carolina Tar Heels basketball amps up its recruiting strategy as Michael Malone aggressively targets elite prospects, offering scholarships to 11 of the top 15 players in the 2027 class, including 5-star wing Jordan Page from Raleigh. Is this bold approach the key to returning UNC to blue-blood dominance, or does it risk missing out if marquee names commit elsewhere? The conversation focused on the importance of length, versatility, and in-state connections in the modern college game.

Shifting to football, the discussion explored UNC’s daunting 2026schedule—facing Notre Dame, Miami, and Louisville, all ranked in the AP preseason Top 25. Several points were raised, including whether a bowl game is possible after last season’s four-win campaign and which swing games (like TCU and NC State) could define Bill Belichick’s squad. With tough matchups and high-stakes recruiting, the Tar Heels face crucial tests on both the hardwood and the gridiron.

Exclusively for Inside Carolina listeners/viewers, get a free sample pack LMNT with any purchase when you use this link.

Carolina kicks off the 2026 in less than two weeks as the Tar Heels face TCU in Ireland. After a bad year in 2025 and an off the field circus that matched the poor play on the field, the national narrative - and frankly much of the fanbase narrative - is that year two of the Bill Belichick era will not be much better than year one.

What is driving that narrative? Is it the collapse of last season? The schedule? The general dislike to the whole Belichick experiment?

Inside Carolina senior reporter Greg Barnes joins Tommy Ashley to discuss those questions and more in the first IC Daily of the new season.

FINALLY! UNC Tar Heels Breathe SIGH OF RELIEF as Sayon Keita ARRIVES; NCAA Eligibility LOOMS!

Locked On Podcast Network — Mon, 17 Aug 2026 07:00:00 GMT

UNC Tar Heels basketball finally unites as Sayon Keita arrives in Chapel Hill—but will NCAA eligibility setbacks sideline the highly anticipated frontcourt addition? The conversation focused on Keita’s transatlantic journey, fan reactions, and the lingering questions over his amateur status after playing professionally in Europe. With Cameron Fens, Samdurov, and Jarin Stevenson providing frontcourt depth, can Coach Michael Malone shape these pieces into a championship-ready lineup?

A key theme that emerged was the Tar Heels’ murky quarterback race as game week approaches. The discussion explored the cases for Billy Edwards, Miles O’Neill, and rising freshman Travis Burgess, breaking down their experience, risk factors, and strategic implications for the upcoming clash with TCU. Plus, insights on Ohio State moving Senior Day to the season’s opener had Carolina traditions in the spotlight. Will these changes give the Tar Heels the edge they need heading into a pivotal season?

PERFECTION! Tar Heel Jonathan Holmes Goes INSIDE Miami (OH)'s Undefeated Run, New Role at Charleston, UNC Memories, & MORE! | PART 1

Locked On Podcast Network — Fri, 14 Aug 2026 08:00:00 GMT

Former Tar Heel guard and current Charleston assistant coach Jonathan Holmes joins for an interview!

He takes us back to last season when his Miami (OH) RedHawks stunned college basketball with a 31-0 undefeated regular season powered by resilience, depth, and clutch performances. Does this historic run signal a new standard for mid-major programs? Coach Jonathan Holmes, now at Charleston, offers behind-the-scenes insights into Miami’s winning DNA—including overcoming the loss of star point guard Evan Ipsaro, thriving in one-possession thrillers, and deploying a balanced offense featuring Peter Suter and five double-digit scorers. The episode explores the challenges of high-major scheduling, Holmes’s coaching journey from Montreat to D1, and the pivotal role of retention in sustained success. Isaac Schade guides the discussion with sharp analysis and exclusive stories from inside the locker room. Can Charleston replicate Miami’s magic this season? How will Holmes’s offensive acumen impact the Cougars, and what can other programs learn from Miami’s approach? Don’t miss this essential conversation on redefining college basketball success.
