Welcome to another podcast from insidecarolina.com, the independent voice of unc sports.

Brought to you by johnny t-shirt.com, the go-to provider for all your tarheel gear.

I'm your host, Tommy.

Actually, listen to the Inside Carolina podcast, On the Beat podcast, sponsored by Johnny T-shirt.com.

On The Beat, of course, means I've got Greg Barnes, Gregory Hall, and the Ross Martin. We'll start off with Ross Martin. Ross Monday afternoon here as we record this podcast, Carolina basketball, getting ready to go to Virginia Tech on Wednesday night, now at 8 and 9. I think I saw first time under 500 since the Santa Clara ball game that started the 0405 season certainly different circumstances there but that game was very similar to this season no point guard no wins for Carolina where do they go we talked about it on go?

you know, down 20 at halftime. I mean, that was embarrassing at Pitt, a team that was,

you know, it was beatable and they were up against in Chapel Hill. I don't really know where to turn.

I mean, there's no takeaway. I was thinking about it

kind of getting ready for this podcast. I mean, there's not many takeaways, positive takeaways from

that game. I thought we saw some signs of improvement against Clemson and the games before that,

but this was a step back, I thought. Didn't play well on the road. Four straight losses, you know, winnable games ahead.

Like I said last time, Virginia Tech, Miami, NC State, Boston College.

There's winnable games left on the schedule before it gets really tough with Forest State, Duke, Virginia, Louisville, teams like that.

So, man, I'm lost for words.
