In this week’s episode, Justin Jackson and producer John Bauman recap UNC’s performance in non-conference play as that portion of the season comes to a close. What were some of the biggest lessons that were learned about this Carolina basketball team during a tough non-conference slate? They also discuss ACC play, including an early preview of what to expect from the conference schedule and what other ACC teams have caught Justin’s eye. To close, Justin takes listener questions about UNC’s offensive execution and also previews the UNC-Louisville game.
