On Air Today: Ross Martin of Inside Carolina

For thousands of years scientists have held that each day consists of 24 hours. This discovery has gone unchallenged for much of human history. That is, until UNC’s star tailback Elijah Hood made it his life mission to stretch the limits of time. For most mere mortals, the grind of a high-level Division I football […]

As the 6-6 UNC football team prepares for the Quick Lane Bowl against Rutgers, the offense looks to stay focused and establish some type of consistency.

I hope Mack and Sally Brown, after their supporters and naysayers said goodbye in their own ways, found a quiet moment to have a good cry.

Last November, I asked Bubba Cunningham if Mack Brown might retire after the 2023 football season. He said, “It’s up to him.” “I thought you were the athletic director,” I responded, half-jokingly. “It’s up to him,” Bubba repeated, as he smiled and walked away.

There have been some classic Carolina-Duke football encounters over their 110 games in the last 136 years.

Three take-aways from Carolina’s pleasing 41-10 win over Virginia Tech. The Hokies (along with Commonwealth cousin Virginia) may be the worst team in the ACC, a shadow of what they used to be. The ACC Coastal Division and the mythical “State Championship” are still out there for the Tar Heels to win. Drake Maye has […]

Don’t let the 45-32 final score deceive you: this was one of the most disappointing days in the history of Kenan Stadium and Carolina football. Mack Brown has done a tremendous job reigniting the enthusiasm around his sport, and Saturday was supposed to be the game that proved his program could compete against the best […]

What will all the transfers mean for Carolina football? The Tar Heels have lost more than ten players by transfer or early entries into the NFL draft. It would be an alarming number if, as Mack Brown likes to say, the transfer portal wasn’t so “crazy.” While hundreds and hundreds of players from all levels […]
