Posted Dec 2, 2023
After more than two seasons as the arena host for North Carolina men’s basketball games, Brian McLaughlin, better known as "B Daht," is no longer in that role. B Daht, an actor, comedian and radio personality, was brought in at the start of the 2021–22 basketball season, Hubert Davis’ first as head coach, to bring energy to the Smith Center crowds.
