Talking Preps NC 02.07: New NC polls, Cade Tyson and a McDonald’s All-American
There’s a new Talking Preps NC that debuts Monday night at 8 p.m. On tap:
▪ Carmel Christian star Cade Tyson and coach Joe Badgett stop by to talk about the season. Carmel is a top 5 statewide team with real state championship potential. Tyson, a Belmont recruit, is younger brother of Clemson starter Hunter Tyson. Also, Tyson faces off with Randall on “The Game Show.”
▪ On the Rundown, coach Rick talks about the nation’s top 3 scorers being from North Carolina, Chelsea breaks down a big game between Millbrook and Wake Forest and Gary has thoughts on how Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools can make conference tournaments special again.
▪ Chelsea sits down with McDonald’s All-American Indya Nivar, an Apex Friendship star who has signed with Stanford.
▪ We reveal the latest ‘All-NC’ high school basketball statewide polls, and there’s a new No. 1 on the boys side, a big time move from a girls team from Mecklenburg County -- and just a bunch of changes elsewhere.
▪ Coach Rick, Alex and Randall discuss the latest Mr. and Ms. Basketball Watchlists for the NC players of the year.
▪ And in ‘Coach vs. Coach,’ Gary and Randall debate whether or not state championships should still be on college campuses, should the NCHSAA end geography-based playoff seedings and would most systems be better off allowing open enrollment for athletics.
