As North Carolina's coaching search extends into its second week, Inside Carolina senior reporter Greg Barnes and Tommy Ashley discuss that process and how the events of the past six days have shaped the timeline for the Smith Center renovate/relocate debate and decision.

Barnes and Ashley talk patience, not only in that building process, but in the coaching search process as Carolina's key targets have advanced with their teams into the Final Four semifinals on Saturday.
