Most UNC fans I know are disappointed in this hire.

Not me. He’s a high character guy and has paid his dues. Some UNC fans did not want a guy with no head coaching experience. Seems like there was a school that hired a young unproven guy a few years ago. I think his name was Dabo or something. I hear he worked out ok.

Re: I thought they might go with Wes Miller - but he's not

Honestly there’s too many to name that have head coaching experience. Wes Miller is absolutely loved at UNC but so is Hubert. I’m just fine with the pick. I’m also very relieved they did not hire Jerry Stackhouse.

He's a lazy hire. No experience whatsoever. Clemson started putting UNC in the rear view mirror the last couple years. I have no reason to believe UNCs days of upper level basketball is definitely over. At least you have ACC network showing old games lol.

the Assistant Coach @ UNC since 2012 . . . During that time he also was the Head Coach of their JV Basketball Team. UNC remains the only school in the ACC that has a JV Squad.

Tony Bennett just won the lottery -- UVA will soon be the last school standing in ACC hoops like Clemson is only ACC school standing in foozball.

FSU isn't going anywhere either under Hamilton. UVa and FSU have been the winningest programs in the ACC over the last four years.

When HD announced his leaving TV to return to UNC I was sure he was the heir apparent. Roy probably said that he had about 8-10 more before he was gonna have to retire.

It has become clear to UNC fans that the plan all along was to hand the HC job to Hubert. The AD's statement that UNC would conduct a nationwide search for a new coach was a ruse. My thought is that a 3 time National Championship winner, and HOF coach, probably deserves a huge say in who is his successor.

In my opinion this hire is fair, it’s deserved, and it’s the best hire. Hubert has been underrated his entire career. Just watch what’s about to happen.

I think it's a good hire for you guys.

It's not a "splash hire," and certainly doesn't generate much excitement throughout the college basketball world, but Hubert Davis has a lot going for him. He was a UNC star player, NBA player, and has been a longtime UNC assistant. He has learned from a legend in Roy Williams. His background, plus the UNC name, will surely help him be very successful. I really think he will recruit incredibly well. He will need to grow into the role of being a head coach, but I am sure he has taken great notes and will have a good staff and support system around him.

Very good assessment and I believe accurate. I remember when Dabo was not a splash hire. Now we are all jealous. Some guys just have it in them to do well. I believe Hubert has it.

Wes Miller has it too. Especially if he becomes the coach here relativelly soon...

Wes Miller is a rising star. Some power 5 school will be very fortunate to get him. I’m sure he was the #2 choice at UNC this time. He’s impressive.

Well we are about to find out in a big way. He’s asking Walker Kessler to reconsider his transfer plans. I have mixed feelings about this but if he can convince a kid and parents to swallow their pride and come back I think he’s a recruiter.
