Mitchell talks about the excitement of the start of the NCAAW season:

“Yeah, it feels like it came around pretty quick. You know, we’re in football season. And I’m doing some freelance work covering that. And then all of a sudden, media days are here and then less than a month from now, we’ll have games. So yeah, it seems like it kind of came up on us pretty fast. And yeah, I’m excited. I got to see a lot of coaches and players here this morning and some of my colleagues. So yeah, it’s a good day here in Charlotte.”

Mitchell talks about UNC and how they will do this coming season:

“Yeah, I think UNC should be one of the teams that challenges for an ACC title this year. I think this league is more open this year than it has been in years past. And I think realistically, there’s probably five teams that could win the title.”
