[volprof]

Hubert Davis, of ESPN College Gameday fame, has been announced as the newest member of Roy Williams' staff at UNC. The following is from Tarheelblue.com:

Former University of North Carolina guard, 12-year NBA veteran and ESPN analyst Hubert Davis is the Tar Heels' newest assistant men's basketball coach, head coach Roy Williams announced today.

Davis has spent the past seven years with ESPN as a highly regarded college basketball analyst and co-host of College GameDay. He is replacing Jerod Haase, who spent nine years on Williams' staff at Carolina prior to being named the head coach at UAB.

"I am very excited, thankful and honored to re-join the Carolina basketball program as an assistant to Coach Williams," says Davis. "I loved being a part of college basketball during my time at ESPN by attending practices and games and developing relationships with players and coaches. Now I will have the opportunity to do this on a more personal level at a university and with a basketball program that I have loved my entire life."

Hubert was one of the few guys at espn that I like. Good luck to him.

And espn's college hoops crew grows weaker yet. Best of luck

They should hire Bruce to replace him. Would be awesome to see him sit next to Digger Phelps and Bob Knight after they bashed him the whole season.

Digger annoys the crap out of me. I'd rather watch paint dry than hear Knight's commentary, but the man obviously deserves some respect. Just don't like him mic'd up.

But wouldn't be great to see them uncomfortable next to Bruce Pearl?

 

[milohimself]

Yeah, maybe for a single occasion. I don't really care all that much.

I've always hated them both

Hubert Davis was the best part of College Gameday, I hope he has success at UNC

Well, there goes the only guy on the gameday crew that actually liked UT the last few years.

 

[Shaun1985]

Dang! Hubert was my favorite. Out of all the big named programs, I like Roy the best so good for him!

I think pearl vs. Knight would be a good fight.

Dang. Now you just know that ESPN will replace him with that little b***h Doug Gottlieb.

 

[LittleCat]

Digger and Knight...

*shudders*

Depends are there any metal chairs on set, or are they sitting directly beside each other where a choke hold could be reached?

Now there is nothing to stop the Duke fluffing. Jay Bilas, Dickie V will be working overtime.

Btw I think Bruce would be phenomenal on there. Anything to annoy Digger. That guy is the worst.
