  • S12, Ep 56 Part 2: Championships, Carolina Blue, NIL & the Ebb and Flow of Golf with John Inman

Thank you for coming back for Part 2 of this week’s Next on the Tee, where I’m joined by our good friend John Inman for a conversation that’s equal parts insightful, nostalgic, and just plain fun.

John and I start off talking about the Bill Bellichick experiment at UNC, where John played his college golf, including winning the 1984 National Championship. You’ll hear how he feels about the Tar Heels’ 4–8 season and what’s happening with that program. From there, John shares his perspective on the impact NIL has had on college athletics, and how college sports have essentially become the minor leagues across the board.

We also rewind the clock to John’s victory at the 1993 Buick Southern Open, his brother Joe’s win at the 1976 Kemper Open, their collective success in the tournament, and the ever-changing nature of golf — those moments when you feel like you’ve cracked the code, followed by days when the game reminds you just how humbling it can be.

John is always a joy to talk with, and this segment is filled with great stories, honest opinions, and plenty of laughs. Thank you so much for pressing play and being a part of this week’s show — we’re going to have a great time.
