    UNC’s Delay on Hubert Davis Doing More Harm Than Good | Bomani Jones on Blue Bloods & Nostalgia | Roy Cooper Convo | 03.24

    The waiting game in Chapel Hill is somehow still going. All indications continue to point toward North Carolina moving on from Hubert Davis — and yet the administration appears consumed by the desire to handle the transition "the right way". Ovies & Giglio see the irony in all this. In trying to do this the right way UNC may be doing it in one of the most uncomfortable ways possible for the people whose professional lives are hanging in the balance. CBS Sports' Chip Patterson joins the studio to provide something genuinely valuable — a window into the Tar Heel group chat ecosystem. They don't post through it the way fan bases at some other high profile programs do. Which means the real temperature of Chapel Hill right now exists in private conversations rather than public timelines. Bomani Jones then joins the conversation for the kind of analysis that only Bo delivers. The discussion centers on UNC's place in the modern era of college basketball — what the program actually is versus what its history says it should be — and the specific danger of nostalgia as a navigational tool for an institution trying to find its footing in a landscape that has changed completely around it. Former North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper — a double Tar Heel — comes into the studio to give his take on what's happening in Chapel Hill. And because he is by his own designation North Carolina's number one Caniac, the Carolina Hurricanes conversation was never not going to happen.

    UNC Appears Ready to Move On From Hubert Davis | Duke Is the Last ACC Team Standing | 03.23

    Fair warning — this episode might already be outdated by the time you press play. The situation surrounding Hubert Davis at North Carolina is moving fast. All indications out of Chapel Hill point to the university being ready to move on from Davis following the shocking first round NCAA Tournament loss to VCU. The mechanics of how the separation happens appear to be the remaining variable. But the direction the university is heading seems clear enough that Ovies & Giglio are treating this episode as the honest accounting of how Hubert Davis ended up here — and how dramatically different everything looked just three weeks ago. And when UNC makes Davis' status official — who do the Tar Heels go after? Then the basketball still being played — because the NCAA Tournament doesn't pause for Chapel Hill's administrative decisions. Duke is the only ACC team remaining in the Sweet 16. The Blue Devils got their Siena scare in the first round and then found something critical in a second half sequence against TCU that allowed them to look like themselves again heading into the Sweet 16. Cameron Boozer still shows up in the box score but the game isn't coming as easily as it did earlier in the season — the physical toll of a deep tournament run is showing and the question worth asking is whether something as straightforward as getting Patrick Ngongba back into the lineup is the piece that unlocks the version of Duke that nobody in the bracket wants to face. N&O's Shelby Swanson joins the show to discuss the Hubert Davis situation with the reporting and perspective that the moment demands. A Lightning Round follows. OG Sports Phone closes it out.
