I don't think Team Coach Buzz is in high demand these days.

Oh I don't think either will actually hire him, but I'm sure he's quietly let it be known that he'd answer their calls.

As others have said, UNC is probably going to be an inside hire - Miller or Davis.  I'd guess Miller.

Hard to create demand when you only win three games in the months of January, February, and March.

I don't think its going to be any of these guys.  I would be amazed if they do anything outside the Carolina family.  They didn't when Dean left, when Guthridge retired or when Doherty bombed.

Yep. Gonna be Hubert Davis or Wes Miller, I would think.

For their sake, I hope the right hire can fix that.  More because I'm counting on that happening here.

And they were right until they got Beard 3 coaches later.

I am going to guess Grant McCasland to Texas Tech and Wes Miller to UNC.

Imagine Mills, Golding, and McCasland will be the names that come up for TTU.

Maybe Pat Knight's kid can take over the TTU program.

Has McClung made any kind of declaration of his plans? He was kind of Beard's Markus Lite, had the green light to shoot whenever he wanted.

RJ Davis....

Didn't have a good year. But Kerwin Walton would peak my interest.  Minnesota native, so the Gophers would probably be in the mix as well.

Matt Norlander reporting that Texas was targeting Chris Beard for Head Coach before Smart left. They were waiting for his buyout to drop, which it did today.

Honestly, I wouldn't be mad.  Jay has done absolutely everything he could at Villanova.  Villanova has yet to be officially dethroned as the Big East's top program since the reorganization.  We need new programs to step up and carry the torch.

I wonder if UNC might be the one job in college hoops that Wright can't get.

That would be certainly something. Maybe looking for a new challenge. I kind of figured he’d only leave Nova for an NBA job.

Neither am I. The grass is quite a bit greener at Nova and He knows it and why tarnish his legacy there for what, UNC?

Actually the folks at Gonzaga are pretty sure Few is on his way to UNC.

I'll believe Few or Wright at UNC when I see the official announcement.

The problem for UNC right now is that there is no clear successor to name that is an alum with successful high-major experience.  Hubert Davis hasn't been a head coach.  Jerry Stackhouse has had two losing seasons at Vanderbilt (while also attacking fans on social media).  Wes Miller comes from a mid-major in UNC-Greensboro.  Jerod Haase has not done nearly enough at UAB or Stanford to warrant consideration.  Guys like George Karl and Larry Brown are not exactly young, nor are they likely able to put up with the demands of recruiting. 

Jordan and Kupchak will likely be advisors in the search, considering the Jordan Brand connection. 

Will be interesting who their identify as a top target.  I don't think anyone really thought this job would open this cycle.
