Hubert Davis contract extended until 2030…

[TarHeelFanJ]

Reportedly was agreed upon this summer and signed in December.

Thoughts?

He rebuilt the roster, won the ACC regular season, swept the dookies, earned a 1 seed in the NCAA tournament, and was a couple boneheaded Withers' plays away from the Elite Eight. A summer contract extension offer isn't surprising.

Based on his base pay, he's still susceptible to being bought out/fired if next season isn't up to Carolina standards.

I think this just suggests Bubba knows that NIL was a serious issue in Carolina athletics recently. Because the goal around UNC hoops right now is to increase NIL funds and put a GM in place to modernize UNC recruiting.

On the Bubble until 2030 just great…

This program is a joke now.

I keep checking my watch to make sure it’s not April Fools Day.

Hubert has every reason to be held accountable for winning. He has a .696 winning percentage at UNC! He has a finals appearance, he has a conference crown. He definitely stays on the hot seat because if we don't get a big man this off season Hubert will never see 2030!

With the hiring of a GM and an influx of NIL funds, we should have a legitimate Carolina caliber roster next season. We won't be asking a bunch of bench players to start in our front court.

Which means the focus will be entirely on what the coaching staff can do with a legit UNC roster.

That's assuming the GM and our NIL delivers when we rebuild the roster this offseason. Which I believe they will.

I must say I wasn't over joyed when I read this but.....

If he's out guy then he's my guy! Now let's get Carolina back to Carolina!

I’m not sure that Carolina is serious about remaining a blueblood. I think it’s more serious about keeping everything in the family, regardless of the mediocre results.

I don't know if the details of the deal are anywhere, but I have to believe this doesn't mean we're locked in with Hub til 2030.

If his coaching and leading this team follows the same unacceptable, garbage, not up to UNC standard, by end of next year at the latest they will buy him out, I hope.

Even when they are winning now against some frankly low major talent level garbage teams...the Heels are so hard to watch. Some guys hustle, but there is a lot of standing around on offense, and nothing really lock-down on defense against good shooting, passing, driving teams.

I saw part of Houston / Tex Tech last night. Either of those teams would beat the Heels on any given night by 30+. Just like Duke.

Its not like he can't be fired... there has to be some semblance of a performance expectation.
