Hubert Davis

Being honest as I can be, I am questioning JWash's heart and passion for the game. Kid has, in my opinion NBA level raw talent but a raw egg makes a awful omlet. I seen plenty of people in weight rooms all my life but only a very few are really putting in that intense hard work required to build muscle mass, which is what Jalen needs. Jalen by nature is a passive guy yet I have seen passive guys rip players to shreds on the court, have seen passive guys put in amazing work in the weight room. It takes huge dedication in the weight room to add that bulk Jalen needs, Bacot was not close to the physical specimen he was when he left UNC as a freshman. Greatness in any sport is a direct result of how much passion you have and how much consistent work you are willing to invest.

I see Jalen as very talented but SOFT, I don't mean that as an insult to the kid, he is a wonderful kid, one any parent would be proud of but he shys away from the physical and embraces the finesse, he limits himself by thinking he has boundaries that he can not exceed, great players do not limit themselves, they dedicate each minute to each day to getting better, if I am not better today than I was yesterday then I failed, do I allow failure to define me?
Oh, he`s as soft as a poached egg !
 
I guess my question is will he be fired at 20-14. ?

I say if he hits 20 in any way he survives
I disagree with the process if he survives with 20 wins but gets fired with 19 wins. Kind of an arbitrary round number bias that isn’t based on anything sustainable.

The question should always be is Hubert the best person to lead the program? And can you get someone better than Hubert? Regardless of the rest of the games IMO.
 
I don’t under and how Hubert can continue if he has any type of love for the program. He’s terrible and never should’ve been hired. He’s way over his head.
I said the same thing. If he loves Carolina the way he says he does, he would undoubtedly know he isn’t getting the job done and would step aside for someone else to lead.
 
Nothing would make me happier than to read a headline in the morning that he has been fired.

there has been zero improvement and really we are getting worse.

Roy had some bad teams and seasons but I always felt like they were getting better.

hubert to resign at end of season or be let go.
Only chance is if he steps down but that want happen because he thinks everything is okay…He will get next year but I expect the bottom to really fall out next year like 8-20 fallout…It’s time to purge the Basketball Program and head in another direction…The old way of doing things is over…UNC Basketball either gets with the times or get left behind….

I kind of agree with you because I think there are chemistry issues and I think we are going to see multiple guys leaving and entering the portal.
 
i guess this guy is plugged into coaching hires. I hope this is true, Oats is #1 on my list.

 
Is North Carolina serious? What UNC does with basketball coach Hubert Davis will tell us

Holy crap did anybody see this article in USA Today
Great article. Dude appears unbiased and hit the nail on the head.

I think most wanted Hubert to work. Carolina lineage, great guy, would have been an awesome success story.... All except he can't coach. ESPN's SVP said it best, "Carolina being OK, is NOT OK".

We are trapped in a conference without big football money influence. That leads to tighter nil budgets. That leads to fewer quality players and fewer quad one win opportunities within league. There is just no room in this equation for an average or below average coach to learn on the job.

It sucks for Hubert because, by all accounts, he is a great person. So is my Aunt Anne but she can't coach worth a shit either. I have to believe Bubba has already started his search to replace Hubert.

Anyone who thinks we would beat dook in the ACC Tournament is completely out of their mind....................
I would love to see us hire Kelvin Sampson. His teams play hard and defend with his athletes. He`s also a NC native. He recruits dawgs not soft pussies. Thats all folks!!!!!

Not sure why we think we could lure Oats from his successes at Alabama to take over a dumpster fire here.

While looking up Oats to see if he maybe had some strong NC connections - apparently not - I ran into this Wikipedia comment

During the days immediately after Hurley announced his departure, Buffalo's athletic director at the time, Danny White, interviewed the team's players, all of whom advocated for Oats becoming the permanent head coach.​

Which makes me wonder who among our current coaches our players would rally around if told that Hubert was being cut loose. Would they try to save Hubert? Would they get behind Marcus? Who's the players' choice?

CBB is pretty much pro sports now. Oats would turn us around right away with the transfer portal. Alabama will always be considered a football school first.
 
National Media is now picking up on Hubert being gone at the end of the year…I still feel he gets 1 more but I ask myself why wait….Let’s move on Bubba and be done with this failed experiment…

If this thing goes in the tank the rest of the season something will happen…

Yeah that article cut to the point and made a lot of sense. It needs to be a business decision, not an emotional one. It's tough as Hubert was a great player, and is a great person without a doubt. My guess is he gets one more year, but who knows at this point.
