Reese, Pam and Alex speak with Art Chansky.
Art Chansky is a longtime UNC insider with decades of experience covering Tar Heel basketball. Chansky joins the Sports Shop to discuss UNC’s surprising hire of Michael Malone as the new head basketball coach of the North Carolina Tar Heels. He weighs in on what Malone’s NBA background brings to the program, how this departure from the traditional “UNC family” approach could impact the team, and whether this bold move is the right choice for a program with such a storied history. Was this a good hire? Will it work out?
