Jay Bilas, this week’s guest on “Sports Legends of the Carolinas,” is ESPN’s leading college basketball analyst, and in many ways, the conscience of the sport. On Part 2 of our conversation, the 58-year-old Bilas looks back at his acting career, the toughest opponent he ever faced on the hardwood, and the leap of faith that made his broadcasting career a reality.
