Michael Malone says Indiana ‘manhandled,’ ‘outworked’ Tar Heels in exhibition blowout
Posted Oct 18, 2026
North Carolina got some tough lessons in a 76-58 exhibition loss Sunday about what needs to change when the games count. Rebounding had been a point of emphasis all week in preparation for Indiana’s size, and UNC coach Michael Malone said his team fell well short of that goal. "To be manhandled, to be outworked on the glass was disappointing."
