Joe Ovies and Joe Giglio open the show with North Carolina holding serve in ACC hoops play with a nice win over Florida State. What does it do for the Tar Heels and their NCAA Tournament potential? WaPo's Patrick Stevens joins the podcast to discuss bracketology. The Carolina Hurricanes are back on the ice, which means speculation about Mikko Rantanen is also back in the news cycle.

In the Lightning Round, Coach K has been floating the idea of an ACC/Big East hoops merger. The Big East commish didn't dismiss the idea. Is there something to it?
