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