Good to see UNC getting home games for both Men's and Women's.
You don't actually expect to have UNC travel for a non-conference game do you? Next year there will be a reason why they can't travel again.

FYI Mutts will be on ESPN
2tonight at 10pm EST as he is on the Kings' summer league roster. Hopefully he gets some minutes.One piece of news that slipped my radar in January that just went into effect so expect to see coaching hires in both men and women's basketball.
Article here
Key points for basketball:
1. Two additional assistant coaches for on campus coaching.
2. Only three continue off campus recruiting.
3. Potential for a Manager position down the road as a developmental position.
" By adopting the proposal, the number of countable coaches in baseball, softball and ice hockey increased to four total in each sport. The Council rejected an additional increase to five countable coaches in those sports.
The Council supported an increase of two coaches in men's and women's basketball. These additional coaches may engage in coaching activities but may not recruit off campus. The rules change codified a waiver in those sports that allowed noncoaching staff members to engage in skill instruction. In both Football Bowl Subdivision and Football Championship Subdivision football, the Council redefined graduate assistant positions to graduate student coaches and limited individuals to serving three years maximum in that role.
Men's and women's basketball opted not to impose the current seven-year window for manager positions to increase the opportunity for former student-athletes β who often compete professionally overseas immediately after college β to return to campus in pursuit of degree completion and to professionally develop as potential future coaches. In women's basketball specifically, the professional development of the manager position is considered an opportunity to increase the gender and racial diversity of the coaching ranks long-term, which is a specific objective of the sport's strategic plan.
The coaching limits rules take effect July 1."
It was good to see Mutts and Justin Robinson out there in summer league.
