Special: Belichick and UNC - Year One and Beyond

It has been an eventful year in Chapel Hill, as exactly one year ago, the North Carolina Tar Heels embarked on the Bill Belichick era. After a tumultuous first season with results no one wanted or expected, the second 365 days start now. The Inside Carolina crew of Greg Barnes, Jason Staples and Don Callahan join Tommy Ashley for a wide-ranging discussion of what went wrong, what went right and what lessons were (hopefully) learned for a head coach and UNC staff figuring out the college game on the fly. The IC panel also discusses what progress looks like over the next 365 days and how this program can get back to relevance on the football field.
