North Carolina women’s basketball is bringing back Holding Court with Courtney Banghart for another season, and the weekly radio show will once again be taped in front of fans at the Sheraton Chapel Hill.
The Tar Heel Sports Network from Learfield will launch the new run on Monday, Dec. 7, with 10 in-person shows scheduled for the season. The show will stay at the Sheraton Chapel Hill for a fourth straight year and is open to the public.
Coach Courtney Banghart will appear with Matt Krause, the play-by-play voice of North Carolina women’s basketball, to talk about the Tar Heels and the stories around the team. A lunch menu and beverages will be available for purchase.
The schedule includes shows on Dec. 7 and Dec. 14 before the series pauses for the holidays. It picks back up on Mondays from Jan. 4 through March 1.
Fans who can’t make it in person can catch the show the next day as a podcast on the Tar Heel Voices Podcast Channel. New episodes are posted Tuesday mornings, and the archive is available anytime. Holding Court also airs on tape delay on WCHL 97.9 FM/1360 AM, with the weekly broadcast schedule listed below.
The Sheraton Chapel Hill, which reopened in 2021 after a $20 million renovation, sits at One Europa Drive in Chapel Hill, just off U.S. 15-501 and minutes from downtown and the UNC campus. Free parking is available.
Fans can subscribe to Tar Heel Voices through Apple Podcasts, Spotify or other podcast platforms. The weekly show link will also be shared on X through the program’s account, @uncwbb.

UNCs Quarterback Future Suddenly Matters More Than Its Final Three Games
As North Carolina gets ready for a bowl-deciding stretch, the quarterback room has become just as important as the scoreboard. Billy Edwards Jr. is still the starter, but the Tar Heels are also looking at the bigger picture, with coaches weighing how much run to give backups Miles O'Neil and Travis Burgess over the final games.
The point is less about making a dramatic switch than about learning what the program has behind Edwards and how the position might look beyond this season. Those snaps could help shape future competition and development, which makes the next few weeks about more than simply closing the year with a win. [Read more 🡒]
UNC Gymnastics Just Added A Recruiting Class Fans Will Want To See
North Carolina gymnastics has added a new wave of talent, with head coach Danna Durante announcing three class of 2027 signees who should give the program a fresh boost in the years ahead. Payton Chandler, Brielle Rousseau and Madison Taips arrive with different backgrounds and recruiting profiles, but each brings the kind of upside UNC has been trying to stack in Chapel Hill as the program keeps building under Durante.
The appeal for the Tar Heels goes beyond simply filling out a class. Each gymnast came with a reason for choosing UNC, and the staff is clearly confident the trio can make an impact once they get on campus. For a program looking to keep momentum going, this kind of addition matters not just for depth, but for the long-term shape of what UNC gymnastics can become. [Read more 🡒]
Former Tar Heel Harrison Ingram Just Made His NBA Case Again
Harrison Ingram keeps finding ways to make himself harder to ignore. The former Tar Heel turned in a triple-double for the Salt Lake City Stars in the 2026-27 NBA G League season, filling the box score with 25 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists while continuing to show the kind of all-around game that made him such an intriguing prospect in Chapel Hill and beyond.
Ingrams path has already taken him from North Carolina to the NBA, where he was drafted by the San Antonio Spurs before getting limited action there, and then onto a two-way deal with the Utah Jazz on Oct. 17, 2026. Performances like this one only strengthen his case for a bigger look, especially for a player whose value has always come from doing a little bit of everything rather than fitting neatly into one box.
