2025 - 2026 Coaching Carousel


Translation: They're cutting ties with Davis. Three of their four head coaches since Dean Smith retired were not guys that were coveted (or even close) by powerhouse programs.

They've kept it within the family since 1952. As a result, their coaches have taken a hometown discount in salary and the buyout is lower than ours.

This will be new territory for them.
