They are backing up the brink truck for the hire and for NIL. So expect whoever gets the job to have plenty of money for staff and recruiting to pull his players as well as others.

If it’s Lloyd, I wonder if Veesar stays or if there is any animosity there from either side about his transfer from Arizona. 
 

Veesar plus Krievas if Lloyd could bring him would be unreal.

It’s a weird thing to hang your hat on. Like one year he had 20+ wins and missed the NCAA tournament. Are we to believe that is a successful season? Roy Williams made 5 tourneys, had 3 ACC season championships, 2 ACC Tourney championships, 2 Final Fours, 1 NCAA Championship, then added another NCAA championship year 6. Hubert is barely making the tourney and losing in the first round when he does. They aren’t even in the same universe. His only good run was with Roy Williams’ players. Borderline t25 to unranked program is not the Carolina standard. And that 5 season 20 win record won’t even last a year since Scheyer is about to head into his 5th season and will almost certainly have 20+ wins again.

Yeah, 20 wins for a UNC level program is not a good season. And when a number like that is so cherry picked it makes me go looking. Roy only won 19 games his first season but then proceeded to win 30+ in four of the next five. Hubert never won 30+. Schemer only has four seasons completed and will almost certainly win 20+ next season likely with an overall winning percentage significantly above Hubert's. Schemer just has to figure out how to close the deal in the big dance but it's hard with a revolving door of ine and doners. Yeah, those kids are super talented but they're still freshmen and are prone to doing dumb poo when the pressure gets dialed up to 11. Always been the case, always will be. We can go back to our '93 title as a perfect example. Michigan's Fab 5 with a super talented freshman dominated team and the best of the bunch cranks in crunch time first with an uncalled obvious travel, then the infamous timeout with no timeouts remaining. Freshmen gonna freshman.
