Every name should be available to them, it's Carolina.That is definitely one person they could have hired to be coach.
Feels like a bad year to need a coach....no really good names available, but I also admire Carolina’s willingness to not think outside the box.
It tends to work like that sometimes lolEvery name should be available to them, it's Carolina.
Maybe they'll go after the top coaches after they realize they wasted a few years with Hubert Davis as their coach.
How are you not 90 years old? Actually, don't answer that.always liked hubert on the knicks when i was a kid. he struck me as cerebral on the court, a 'steady eddy.' carried himself with class and never imagined himself to be something that he is not. as a sometime carolina fan (among the big 3 here that im supposed to hate, ie. carolina, duke, and kentucky) i like the possibilities for him. i like the hire, and wish him well.
also, he didn't try to choke his coach, so there's that.
Whoa whoa wait, you were a “kid” when he was on the Knicks in the early 90s? Wow I thought you were like 75 and that’s why you post such inane drivel constantly. But there goes that excuse.

Would have been like if we hired karl hobbs instead of KOFormer player at the school, handpicked after previously being a legend's assistant? No prior head coaching experience? I think I've seen this movie before...
I kid (kinda), but the parallels sure are interesting. Although Davis does have like 8-9 years as an assistant, while Ollie only had 2.
kevin ollie won a national championship as the head coach. im sure carolina fans would like to say hubert did the same.Former player at the school, handpicked after previously being a legend's assistant? No prior head coaching experience? I think I've seen this movie before...

Parallels end when it comes to actual aptitude and capability. Hubert Davis is a very bright manFormer player at the school, handpicked after previously being a legend's assistant? No prior head coaching experience? I think I've seen this movie before...

Guthridge made 2 Final 4s in 3 years, but his first year he inherited juniors Vince Carter and Antawn Jamison and senior PG Ed Cota. You don’t inherit a veteran team with top talent anymore in college basketball. Davis’ job will be much harder than Guthridge’s.It seems wildly underwhelming for being one of the top jobs in the entire country.
But maybe he’s their guthridge of this century.
Didn’t he make a final four or two?
