A new Talking Preps NC debuts Monday night at 8 p.m. (replays after). On tap:

Hopewell High coach JaRon Goodson joins the show to talk about his journey and what he hopes to build in Huntersville.

Chelsea interviews Raleigh Enloe star Josh Laney, who is averaging 20 points per game.

Charlotte Latin star Ned Hull joins to talk about his team’s hot start and to face off with Randall on ‘The Game Show.’

We debate the future of the NCHSAA after a planned merger, of sorts, with the State Board of Education, and whether of not high school basketball players need to leave their home school, and sometimes their state, to “make it.”

Alex and Rick update the state rankings and discuss the candidates for Mr. and Ms. Basketall, and in ‘Coach vs. Coach,’ Randall and Gary argue about the NCHSAA, what to do when your star player has two first half fouls and if the NCAA should expand the men’s basketball tournament.
