North Carolina vs. Indiana: Why This Exhibition Reveals an IMPORTANT Trend for the Tar Heels

The North Carolina Tar Heels have announced their first exhibition game of the 2026-27 season: They will travel to Indianapolis to play the Hoosiers at Gainbridge Fieldhouse, the home of the Pacers. It's an interesting trend where the Heels have played all of their major exhibition games away from the Smith Center - an encouraging trend. The Diamond Heels are set for a Wednesday afternoon re-match with West Virginia, who knocked off Troy on Tuesday afternoon in an elimination game. Coach Forbes is turning to  Folger Boaz in a controversial, but correct decision. What are the 4 keys of the game? Isaac Schade has you set with the 4 Bases Preview!   PHOTO CREDIT: Jerome Miron - Imagn Images    Join the Locked On Tar Heels Everydayer Club!!
