Welcome to another podcast by Inside Carolina.com, the independent voice of UNC Sports,

your home for Tar Heel football, basketball, and recruiting.

I'm your host, Tommy Ashley, joined by Greg Barnes, Ross Martin.

It's Tuesday night as we record this, so it must be the Greg Ross and Tommy show.

I'll start with Ross.

First off, we talked a little bit off the air, and I talked to Plenty with Shirel McMillan

after the post game in Virginia Tech.

Just not a good look for North Carolina basketball on Monday night in Blacksburg, Ross, your take.

Yeah, I mean, you kind of got that feeling watching that game, that it was not

UNC's night and that the game was over pretty early in the second half, and that

UNC really only has two consistent scoring options.

I guess that's a big takeaway.

I know Evan and Greg wrote about that on Tuesday night.

And it's looking that way once Kenny Williams fouled out and there wasn't any other

guys contributing offensively.

And they were getting Virginia was just, Virginia Tech was just taking it to UNC.

You just kind of saw this game was going to be a long night.

It was over pretty early.

Virginia and Texas had the juice, and UNC did not have it.

And my question is, it's kind of the first time this season where I've kind of doubted

this team's ability to kind of bounce back and compete and be a top 10 team that's going to make a

deep run in CLA tournament.
