And if the team doesn't win, blame it on the white boy 😅

GHB Butler says:

Of course BLM A. Smith likes it🙄

GHB Butler says:

Of course he likes the hire, it’s a black guy UNC hired

Dee Williams says:

Played 1998-92??

Ian Wheeler says:

Perfect pick for UNC. The reason we're successful is we always hire from within the family/coaching tree

shaun avalon says:

Puck says:

"Played for UNC 1998-92" Gave 94 years to the Tar Heel's, then travelled back in time to coach, what a legend

Vos Landeck says:

Maybe one day people can just praise the person's qualifications for the job without qualifying them based on their race. Davis has paid his due to get this job and deserves it….has nothing to do with him being an African-American coach. When they qualify it like that, they make it sound like he's being given an opportunity based on race and he didn't actually earn it.

Congrats Coach Hubert Davis.

Sorry you woke guys. Its all about keeping it in UNC family enough said. Top Candidates were Hubert Davis and Wes Miller I believe.

Coach Davis is Carolina blue through and through, just incase you needed narrative to hit your quota.

And its simple laziness from this network in previous telecast that incorrectly reported Coach Roy Williams won 1 championship at Kansas and 2 at Carolina. It is 3 at Carolina and 0 at Kansas. IN addition Hubert Davis played @ Carolina from 1988 – 92; not from 98-92.

Thats 0 for 2 on reporting accurate information about current and last UNC Coaches. 👎

Antonio Sr. says:

Salute to Hubert….Go Heels✊🏾

Daniel Oliver says:

Right Choice. Great Hire. He will be the Next Great Coach in the Tarheel Family.
