The episode title says it all ... we're back.

It's been over a month since we've released a new episode (we had to process the Alabama game like the rest of you), but we're so stoked to tip off PTTP's sophomore season. Similar to last year's offseason, you can expect transfer updates, individual player profiles, season predictions and more to hold us over until the Heels head to Lawrence to take on the Jayhawks to open the 2024-25 season.

On this episode, there's a ton to talk about specifically regarding the transfer portal. In particular, UNC's search for a big man continues with Cliff Omoruyi visiting Chapel Hill this week and Adou Thiero still hopping between his top options. Who do we think would be the best fit alongside recent Belmont transfer Cade Tyson and some of our favorite returning Heels in RJ Davis, Elliot Cadeau, and Seth Trimble.

Pointing out to all our loyal listeners! We appreciate y'all and are excited for what this season's going to bring.

Go Heels!

The Heels won the first leg of “The Charlotte Tournament” as Hubert Davis has referred to these opening round games and now look to familiar March rival Michigan State, led by Tom Izzo. The Spartans looked strong out of the gate and moved the ball well in their win vs. Mississippi State, while it took Carolina a bit of time to get rolling against Wagner. What can we expect from Saturday's matchup? And what are some of our favorite moments from the tourney thus far?

Carolina advanced to the ACC Championship game but couldn’t capture an ACC Tourney title, running into a red hot NC State team that pulled off a 5-game miracle stretch, to steal a bid into the NCAA Tourney. With that said, the Heels still locked up a #1 seed in a West Region filled with storylines, and now we look ahead to their road to the Final Four. What's in store for the Heels and others in the field of 68, and who are some of the players we’re looking forward to watching most?

Carolina finished out the regular season 6-0 and snagged the #1 spot in the ACC Tournament with a hard-fought win over Duke on Saturday. Cormac Ryan was impressive and carried the Heels to victory with a 31-point performance (surpassing his previous 28-point career-high at Cameron Indoor) and the bench provided a spark to help spoil the Blue Devils' senior night. We'll recap all of it and look ahead to Caroina's potential ACC Tourney matchups.

Andy Bagwell joins the pod this week to help preview the final ACC regular season game of the year at Duke, where the Heels are eager to get the win and get to top dog status alone atop the ACC. If you’re someone who can never get enough Duke trash talk, let’s just say you’ll enjoy this one.

Carolina needed a strong second half to come back against NC State in the Smith Center on Saturday, and it was the increased intensity on the defensive end of the floor that propelled the Heels to a 79-70 victory. Jonathan and Brian recap what we saw on Saturday afternoon, discuss how the team is trending as they head into the last week of the regular season, and preview the Heels' upcoming senior night against Notre Dame.

RJ! RJ! RJ! The chants rang through the Dean Dome as loud as the GTHD chants you're used to hearing post-game during the singing of the alma mater. It was one of those nights where you'll remember where you were, who you were with, and how most importantly, how the senior guard from White Plains, NY put the team on his back to stretch Carolina's lead in the ACC standings with only three regular season games remaining.

Carolina is now 12-3 in ACC play, and this week is a big one as the Heels head to Charlottesville where they haven’t won since the days of Kendall Marshall and Harrison Barnes back in 2012. With only five games left on the ACC slate, what will it take to come away with another Quad 1 win and carry that momentum into the final stretch of the season?
