I think this question answers itselfIs there an obvious candidate?

This would be a hilarious big ‘ol middle finger to IU.Brad Stevens
I think if any recruit watched the Last Dance they would be petrified. Greatest of all-time, but his style of motivation may be too much for some.Maybe MJ will get back into coaching.
I know people will accept any guy who's winning, but watching Tony Bennett coached teams regularly would be pretty jarring for UNC fans after Roy.Mark Few? (probably too old to make this move)
Jay Wright? (probably too old to make this move)
Tony Bennett?
Jay Wright is 59 and in great shape, so they could get a good 10 years out of him at least.Mark Few? (probably too old to make this move)

I love it when stuff like this happens.This should all cause an actual domino effect. We rarely get to see it, but this is a time where one opening might affect 4 or 5 higher level jobs.
I can't imagine them not choosing a guy within the family. They shouldn't if someone like Jay Wright would take it, but that University is as in the family as it gets.Hubert Davis has been there as an assistant for a while and UNC sort of seems goofy with the Carolina guy stuff, so I could see him, otherwise I would guess maybe Oats at Alabama.
The UNC family thing is stupid. It is how they end up with people like Bill Guthridge and Matt Doherty.I can't imagine them not choosing a guy within the family. They shouldn't if someone like Jay Wright would take it, but that University is as in the family as it gets.
They also can't do anything without talking to Mike and others first.
I agree, especially when their coaching tree isn't exactly great. It used to be, but all of the great UNC guys are dead or retired.The UNC family thing is stupid. It is how they end up with people like Bill Guthridge and Matt Doherty.
They can pretty much get anyone they want. Why limit yourself to people who played at UNC or were/are assistants there?
If Fran left Iowa, Oats would be at the top of my personal list for guys Barta should throw a Brinks truck at.Nate Oats?
Speaking of, there is another good point on Iowa expectations. Fran's salary is a bargain and Oats already makes like $1m than him next season.If Fran left Iowa, Oats would be at the top of my personal lift for guys Barta should throw a Brinks truck at.
Correct. Ferentz too - he was highly paid for a while, but the market has outpaced him in recent years. Iowa fans seem to think our coaches are paid way more than they actually are.Speaking of, there is another good point on Iowa expectations.

But my hard earned tax dollars!!!Correct. Ferentz too - he was highly paid for a while, but the market has outpaced him in recent years. Iowa fans seem to think our coaches are paid way more than they actually are.
It’s kind of like how the best way to get a big raise is to get a new job. The new hire salaries tend to outpace extensions and new contracts for guys whose original base was 10+ years ago before the TV $ became really stupid.Correct.

Someone mentioned Hubert Davis. Maybe psycho T!Is their a former player that would be a legit candidate like Michigan did?
Bring back Rasheed!Someone mentioned Hubert Davis. Maybe psycho T!
Yeah that was my first thought, but I doubt UNC is ready to hire him. I can't see Bennett leaving UVA. His family is pretty content and he can win.Hubert and Wes Miller at UNCG are the candidates within the family.
From that list, the only ones I could see UNC even entertaining would be Hubert, Few, and Wright. The rest don't seem like fits for the "culture" down there.
yep, I said this before Bama even but I am not mad at you for copying meIf Fran left Iowa, Oats would be at the top of my personal list for guys Barta should throw a Brinks truck at.
