Bomani Jones has turned a Page Two writing gig with ESPN.com into a full-fledged sports media career — which includes his podcast The Right Time with Bomani Jones — and it all started after he finished his MA at UNC, one of his three degrees. He joins host (and friend of 20 years) Joey Powell, to dig into all sorts of delectable UNC sports discussion.

The two talk everything from Carolina Basketball and Hubert Davis’ role, to Mack Brown’s unceremonious exit and Bill Belichick’s arrival, and even get a little bit of “The Wire” discussion in to gloss over one of their favorite topics of all time.
