UNC Basketball Possible coaches

I keep circling back to the Stevens thing (if it is still at all a glimmer of a possibility, as some have hinted). At first glance it's like, why would this still even be a remote possibility -- why would he consider leaving such a good gig in Boston? But then I'm thinking... if you're young enough, if you've got ambition, you might want to do big things. You might not get your name on a building for being a general manager (unless you pay for it)... but you can have a legacy as a coach. Dunno. Prob should just stop thinking about it.
Stevens is out. Keep up.
 
I said early on that I didn’t think TJO had the right personality for the Carolina job and would not do well in the fishbowl environment here. He seems to feel the same way.
Can someone tell me what a fishbowl environment is? People have been using that word so many times and I guess it's time for me to ask.
 
My point is that we could wait until the NBA season is over, or at least announce him now and then have him start later. I don't know -- I've always thought Donovan was a longshot at best, so this doesn't move the needle for me. I freely admit I know almost nothing about recruiting coaches.
No. We need a coach before April 7, or else wave bye-bye to being competitive next season (that is date the portal opens)
 
A couple of people on here have quietly mentioned that it’s maybe not 100% over with Stevens… but maybe that’s just reaaaaalllly wishful thinking…

Lloyd Christmas would have a better chance at the job than Brad Stevens. That ship has sailed.

After speaking with sources close to the Iowa State head coach, I can say that T. J. Otzelberger has pulled out of the North Carolina search and is not expected seasons. Don't think this is about UNC as much as it is about how much he loves the alignment at Iowa State.
Rell and now Ben have both confirmed TJO is off the board.
 
Yeah, I don't see why TJ would want to leave a program he has built and uproot his family to move to UNC as an outsider and enter the snake pit at UNC that awaits.
Oh for fuck's sake, you are so goddamned tedious lately. Give it up.
