  • Rob Harrington

    Do whatever you absolutely can to retain him. You’re all good at what you do, but he is the best analyst I’ve ever come across. Fair, educated, invested.

    No insider interests, just saying. Keep it up.

  • New Arena

    I believe that Carolina basketball needs a new arena. I would love for it to be on campus but it’s time for a new one. There should have been a massive renovation 20 years ago before the scandal happened.

  • Get better technical support

    Long time basketball listener and love the various shows. Just started listening to football this year, mainly because of how good Tommy is. Post WF game episode - you can't have someone in cyborg voice try to talk that many times - makes the show seem very amateur, which of course it's not. Go Heels!

  • Good takes

    I appreciate the takes on a young basketball season that are realistic and fair instead of just Carolina fans getting overly amped too early bc of a promising freshman. Please Sharrell get a cough drop 🙏🏻
