Episode Details

The comparison is lazy and Ovies and Giglio are dismantling it right out of the gate. Mike Malone is not the basketball version of Bill Belichick at UNC — and the proof was hiding in plain sight long before the hire was official. A Carolina Insider podcast appearance back in October showed a coach who already understands what matters in Chapel Hill and brings far more personality to the table than the critics are giving him credit for. ACC Network and ESPN's Wes Durham jumps on to break down the dynamics that unfolded behind the scenes during the coaching search and how the UNC administration can win back the PR ground they lost along the way. WFNZ's Walker Mehl makes the case for Malone's NBA reputation and explains why short coaching cycles in the league shouldn't raise any red flags for Tar Heel fans. Plus Hornets and Panthers talk! Luke DeCock joins to address the growing disconnect between the undeniable success of college sports and those still screaming about a crisis in the game, and Ovies heads to Canes practice to catch up with Mike Maniscalco.
