For a team trying to dig out of NCAA Tournament bubble purgatory, North Carolina could not afford a slip-up in conference play - especially at home. Saturday’s 72-71 loss to Stanford in the Smith Center sits currently as a consequential Quad 3 loss for tournament aspirations, one that will likely put the Heels even more on edge going forward. Inside Carolina’s Tommy Ashley is joined by Dewey Burke to discuss the Cardinal loss and how it all went down in the end.

North Carolina’s size disadvantage against the visiting SMU Mustangs was proven null and void early and often as the Tar Heels locked up the visitors on the defensive end for most of the night and flashed enough on the offensive end to cruise to the 82-67 win in the Smith Center. The trio of RJ Davis, Ian Jackson and Drake Powell combined for 61 points while the total team effort held SMU to just 33 percent shooting on the defensive end. The Inside Carolina crew of Dewey Burke and host Tommy Ashley break down the positive vibes the win has created for Hubert Davis’s team and what lies ahead in Raleigh this Saturday afternoon.

2025 opened with two conference road matchups for North Carolina, and though the game play and effort may not have been up to the team's own standards, late game heroics from Elliot Cadeau helped UNC earn a win at Notre Dame after the Tar Heels delivered a clunker at Louisville earlier in the week. Seth Trimble's absence and continued offensive struggles were themes from both games. Sean Moran and Sherrell McMillan join Joey Powell to discuss this past week's action, as well as give a brief update on Caleb Wilson and some new 2026 recruiting offers.

If North Carolina fans expected the 2025 portion of this season to be any different than the end of last year’s part, the Tar Heel collapse over the final five minutes in Louisville provided a stark and bleak look at where this team is heading without a major course correction.

Inside Carolina’s Rob Harrington joined host Tommy Ashley to discuss what happened and what needs to happen going forward if the postseason tournaments are a possible option.

North Carolina spent the week away from campus since the last episode of the show, but had one last out-of-conference tuneup in the Smith Center on Sunday against Campbell University. Playing without an injured Seth Trimble, North Carolina relied on an aggressive performance from Elliot Cadeau and offensive outbursts by RJ Davis and Ian Jackson to cover up a lackadaisical team defensive performance against the Camels.

I'm sure this guy is a great coach. Not so much in an interview. You know what I'm sayin'?
