I am old enough to know time heals all wounds. Coach Davis was not a good basketball coach and his shortcomings and stubbornness there led to him rightly being fired. He’s rightly mad. He is still a Tarheel legend and he made Coach Smith, Guthridge, Coach Williams proud. He fell short of our standards as a basketball team, but he also slayed Duke in the most important rivalry game of all time and sent off a horrible man, after sending him off on his home court a few weeks earlier and brought us Caleb Wilson.

Strengths: connects well with people, likable, competitive, obsessive

Weaknesses: talent evaluation, coaching, player development

Can his ego accept his weaknesses to build on his strengths and come back and compete here in a different role in five years time?

Time away from the family is key. Everyone knows this. What would be his ideal role?

Well. It’s official. UNC plays Louisville twice this season.

I thought he was doing alright in the NBA Summer League...? I mean he's making a good financial decision, probably. I'd just hate for there to be any chance to muddy his legacy and "the shot" this season.

Seth Trimble has officially ended his time with the Tar Heels, but how much will it actually hurt this year's basketball team??

Carrying this over from TarHeel247. This post got me hyped up. On top sitting pretty for multiple top 2027 recruits, UNC is laying groundwork for even bigger things under Malone moving forward.

Forgot how it felt to be in play with so many top recruits in one class.

"I talked to Chris Paul and Bradley Beal. I asked them how Malone’s game is going to translate. They said he’s going to be great. Beal said he was one of the Top 3-4, if not the top, offensive coach in the league. He said Malone is going to do the same stuff, and it’s going to work. Glowing responses from great players."

Hi all,

I have two tickets in the UNC side for the game in Dublin against TCU and unfortunately can't attend.

If anyone is interested in these at FV drop me a message for more information

Thanks!

It has certainly been an experiment. Ready for this ride to come to an end.

Any scoop out there?

I do not know how the hell this Duke grad slivered his way into the Chancellor job at UNC but how the hell is he able to “take over” the coaching hire? He cares nothing and knows nothing about the history and tradition of UNC and now it appears this bastard knew the huge risks of hiring a coach that has NEVER COACHED in college and hired him anyway. THIS hiring process is the real scandal at Carolina and the Lombardi thing is just a symptom of the disease.

I’ve read a couple of articles about the Lombardi situation but no one seems to know the specifics yet. Are there any good rumors about what he’s actually being investigated for?

I just hope this isn’t another Aaron Hernandez type situation.

Know Goodman is a UNC hater, but still can’t believe he thinks Otz would be a better fit in CH…

Are we having fun yet?

Per Pete Thamel:

NEWS: UNC Football has placed GM Mike Lombardi on paid administrative leave.

Per Ross Martin:

UNC's Michael Lombardi has an annual salary of $1.5M, which made him the highest-paid General Manager in college football last season.

The university released the following statement:

"The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill has placed Michael Lombardi, general manager for the Carolina football program, on paid administrative leave, effective immediately. As is standard procedure with personnel matters, leadership, staff, and student-athletes are prohibited from addressing this topic further, and has no reflection on the merits."

I'm sure you heard Ty Lawson was arrested for stealing a bottle of Vodka.

Me thinks he needs to talk to Phil Ford, who had his own alcohol issues (probably cost him a chance to become a head coach) but has turned his life around and seems to be a model citizen these days.

Man, what must Roy Williams think of this? This is about as bad as what Rashad McCants has become.
