Hubert Davis

Carolina should look at this guy.

They have played a tough ooc schedule, but have lost to nearly all the good teams. The crappy acc will probably help boost their record though.
 
Is he Carolina’s Tubby. Great success first year with Roy’s players then mediocrity
Don’t forget that UNC was a bubble team a week before his first tournament. UNC went on a run during last week and NCAA tournament. Think they were an 8 seed. He would be feeling serious heat if they didn’t make that NCAA run his first year.

I’m guessing they’ll be okay in a weak ACC and get a 5-7 seed. I have no idea how UNC fans fill about that if he gets knocked out in S16.
 
Carolina sure is favored in a lot of future games to be barely over .500
I’m certainly not convinced they’re world beaters, but all 5 of their losses are against good to great teams, and a lot of the metrics still think they’ve played like a fringe top 25 team. It isn’t that outrageous to expect them to bounce back and win most of their games in what looks like a down year for the ACC.

Your clam of "Great success" his first year is quite debatable. Davis' first team was actually disappointing and clearly underachieved in the regular season ....stumbling into the tournament as a mere 8 seed ...but then got hot and finally started to play the way its talent should have in the tourney with a final four run.

In that sense, I don't really see it as comparable to Tubby's 98 team (which exceeded expectations all season long), but instead far more similar to Cal's 2014 team, when our consensus pre-season No. 1 ranked team had a disappointing, dysfunctional, underachieving regular season ....but later had its sins washed clean when it as a mere 8 seed got hot with that final four run (with heavy thanks to Aaron Harrison).

Do they have an idiot for an AD as well? If so, has Davis been given a lifetime contract yet?
 
Iirc even the deep run he had was because he had one guy catch fire right at the end of the season. The next season they flopped even with the same team and its downhill from there.

Be curious to see if they hire another Carolina man or if with nil now huber is there long enough for all the skeletons to cycle their way out of the closet.
