UNC Basketball: Are We Back on Track?

UNC Hoops Talk Podcast #182

Gil is back on the pod today, instead of diving into all the games (Wofford, Gonzaga, and UCLA) because no one wanted that anyway, he talks more about the state of UNC Basketball at the moment. Have Jeremiah Francis and Anthony Harris saved the season? Have we righted the ship? Do we still need to be worried? What's our starting line-up?

Tune in to get caught up and be ready for the Yale game on December 30th!

As always, thanks for listening and Go Heels!

UNC Basketball: On to the Sweet 16!

UNC Hoops Talk Podcast #113

Our Tar Heels have survived, barely, and advanced on to the Sweet 16 in Memphis, TN next weekend.

After blowing out Texas So. they barely do enough to get by Arkansas to set up a match up with Butler and then either UCLA or Kentucky if they win for a chance at the Final Four!

Of course I go over the wins from this past weekend before getting into the upcoming game and weekend.

I'll glance back over my bracket, let you know last minute changes and how much it really didn't matter for my bracket.

Update- End of Year Podcast!

UNC Hoops Talk Podcast #74

It's been a crazy end of the year for me! Hope its been a good holiday season for you and yours, like it has for the Tar Heels!

Amongst the moving, holiday season, and sick kids it has been a little rough on me. Not too mention losing my voice, for those reasons I had to keep this one pretty short.

I apologize for that and look forward to talking with you again next week!

Happy New Year & Go Heels!

Go Heels!

(Sorry there were issues with video/audio of YouTube so it is audio only this time.)

Post UCLA Press Conference and Highlights

Well we obviously bounced back in good fashion and really took it to UCLA. So I guess we showed up to the Battle 4 Atlantis, just a day late. Hopefully, it will continue on with the Florida game Friday night at 8 pm est. and throughout the rest of the season.

Meanwhile, here is Roy Williams, Marcus Paige, Justin Jackson, and Isaiah Hicks after the game with some comments as well as the official highlights video.

Also, here is the box score: UCLA box score

Enjoy and Pass Along!

The Streak Lives On- UNC/Clemson

Article by Lance Dunlap
@LanceLovesHeels

Rarely in college basketball do we see any team dominate another team for an extended number of years. Most college basketball programs have close to a .500 record against most other programs. However, there are a few programs that have separated themselves over the years as consistently great. These programs are known as the blue bloods of college basketball and are (moving East to West) Duke, North Carolina, Kentucky, Kansas, and UCLA. Some may argue Indiana and/or UConn belong in this group, but most believe these are the clear top five college basketball programs of all-time. With that said, the current streak UNC has against Clemson in Chapel Hill is like nothing the other blue bloods have accomplished or anything else in the history of college basketball. After the Tar Heels’ Monday night (surprise) blowout victory over the Tigers, UNC improved its all-time record vs Clemson in Chapel Hill to 57-0, an NCAA record. That’s right; the Clemson University men’s basketball program has NEVER won a game in Chapel Hill.

            Dating back to the first time North Carolina hosted Clemson in 1926 (88 years ago), Clemson has yet to come out of Chapel Hill with a win. Just let that sink in. That dates back to when North Carolina played in the Tin Can, to Woolen Gym, to Carmichael, and finishing (at the moment) in the Smith Center. When most Tar Heel fans think of dominance, they think of Tyler Hansbrough going 4-0 vs Duke in Cameron (or Hansbrough) Indoor Stadium and/or Roy Williams’ undefeated streak at home against NC State since returning to UNC in the 2003-04 season (Roy has only lost twice in Raleigh to NC State in that same span). However, both of these streaks are just drops in the bucket compared to the authority with which the Tar Heels have handled Clemson in Chapel Hill over the last century. Oddly enough, Clemson was almost able to end the streak (most Clemson fans call it “the curse”) against one of the best teams UNC has ever fielded. In the spring of 2008, Clemson took #3 ranked UNC into double overtime in Chapel Hill before Carolina was able to pull out a victory. That North Carolina team finished the season 36-3 (most wins ever by a UNC team) and returned most of its players to march on to the 2009 NCAA Championship.

Many people thought this week’s game in Chapel Hill might bring an end to the streak as the Tar Heels had been struggling this month, starting ACC play 1-4, and Clemson had started conference play so well, beating Duke just two weeks earlier. However, about halfway thru the first half, the Tar Heels’ defense gained intensity and held the Tigers to just one field goal for a little over 18 game minutes, spanning from first half into the second half. During this time, Carolina found its groove with 8 different Tar Heels scoring in the first half and then extending the UNC lead to as much as 31 points in the second half before cruising to an 80-61 victory. For a fan base that hasn’t had much to cheer about thus far into the 2014 calendar year, this victory revived hope that Carolina can return to its early season form and compete in this new, deeper ACC. The coming weeks will show if this intensity and focused can be sustained by Carolina or if this young team needs more development and time to mature.
