As we head into July, we're linking up with Isaac Schade, host of Locked On Tar Heels, your only daily Carolina podcast. We're thankful he took the time to join us for this one, because we had a lot to break down -- roster costs, front court and back court assessments, summer games and practices, the non-con schedule, and why not add in some UNC AD news. Thanks, Bubba. Follow @PointPasserPod on YouTube for new episode drops, score predictions, live game analysis, recruiting updates and more.
Carolina Baseball dropped Game 3 of the Super Regionals series to Arizona 4-3, and despite outscoring the Wildcats 29-15 in those three games, their season comes to an end. We'll take a look back on the season with Diamond Heels legend Chad Flack who helped the Heels get to the College World Series multiple times in his years at UNC with some truly clutch moments.

The Heels landed a huge international player and professional baller in Luka Bogavac from Montenegro as well as Virginia Tech transfer guard Jaydon Young. With these pickups, this team is looking like it has the roster pieces that Hubert needs to play with. Plus, it's Carolina Baseball season as they look to win two games vs. Arizona for another bid to Omaha. We'll break down the Regionals and look ahead to Supers with Carolina broadcaster Matt Krause.

Just a few days after Carolina's loss to Ole Miss in the First Round of the NCAA Tourney, the transfer portal has come to life. Elliot Cadeau and Jalen Washington have entered already and others still have until April 22nd to land somewhere else. One thing's for sure in all this -- college basketball looks way different than it did even five years ago. We'll discuss what needs to happen to the roster in the months ahead for this team to get back to the level of respect that the program has kn...
What a week it's been for Carolina fans holding their breath on the bubble and college basketball fans in general awaiting a look at their potential road to the Final Four. With so many bubble teams, there were always gonna be some broken hearts, but we did not expect things to escalate the way they did, at least in the sports media world. We start there, then dive into UNC's Tuesday opponent out of the Mountain West Conference, the San Diego State Aztecs, and finish a bit unhinged with our b...
Carolina is in Charlotte for the ACC Tourney this week looking for at least three straight wins, including one over likely opponent Duke.

Carolina is on a 4-game win streak and it comes at an essential time, as the Heels are fighting for an NCAA Tourney bubble bid.

We'll also discuss the news around Hubert Davis' extended coaching contract and some important details regarding the timeline of how that unfolded. On a related note, Carolina Basketball has also offic...
Carolina is halfway through ACC play and we’re back on the mic to break down what we’ve seen and what needs to happen for this team to make the NCAA Tournament. The rollercoaster ride has been more intense than ever with this year’s squad. Is it team chemistry? Is it coaching? Is it NIL and the ever-changing college basketball landscape? Chances are it’s a bit of everything, so we’ll try to make some sense out of it for you. Follow @PointPasserPod on YouTube for new episode drops, score predi...

The Heels got to 2-1 on the season last week with a win over American University and now look ahead to a business trip to Hawaii. First up, a true road game against the Rainbow Warriors in Honolulu and then it's down to the Maui Invitational for the best November-ball you can find and a stacked field.

We're just back from an epic weekend in Lawrence with the pod crew to see the Heels take on the Jayhawks at one of the best venues in all of college basketball. From the classic spots on downtown Mass Street and the KU Basketball Hall of Fame to game day vibes at Free State Brewery and The Wheel, we made the most of our 72 hours together taking in the full Kansas experience. We'll share some of our favorite moments from a once-in-a-lifetime trip, and of course, go way in depth on the Heels' ...
With only a few weeks left to go in the offseason, Jonathan is joined by Riley Davis, college hoops writer and podcaster for Heat Check College Basketball, Sleepers Media, and The Field of 68.

We close the show with a special point out to Tylee Craft, a Tar Heel who had an enormous impact on the Carolina community du...
After two months off, we start with a 30,000-foot view of the latest roster as we've now passed the 100 days mark 'til tipoff of the 2024-25 season. The PTTP crew focuses in on starting lineup options as Carolina looks to run small even with the addition of Vanderbilt big man Ven-Allen Lubin. Jonathan also gives a recap of the alumni/player scrimmage that he attended. And last but not least, is there the potential for a late addition to the Carolina roster coming all the way from New Zealand...
Carolina continues its search for another big man and is reportedly in contact with three targets to potentially fill the 4/5 spots –– Coleman Hawkins, Ugonna Onyenso, and Ven-Allen Lubin. Each brings a slightly different skill set and we'll break it all down as the NCAA offseason enters a 10-day dead period in recruiting. Patience, y'all ... patience.

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 specifi...
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? (0:00) - First Round Recap...
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? (0:52) ...
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. (0:52) - Duke Recap (13:29) - Cameron Crazies No...

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.
