News summary

North Carolina men's basketball head coach Hubert Davis has signed a two-year contract extension that will keep him with the program through 2030, despite a challenging season that has seen the team struggle to secure an NCAA Tournament berth. The extension, finalized in December, includes a raise that brings his average compensation to $3.2 million. In addition, the Tar Heels have appointed veteran NBA agent Jim Tanner as their general manager, a move aimed at enhancing roster management amid the evolving college basketball landscape influenced by NIL (Name, Image, Likeness) regulations. Tanner, who has represented numerous NBA players, will assist in contract negotiations, roster construction, and staffing in scouting and analytics. Both Davis and Tanner express excitement about their roles and the potential for the program's future. This restructuring signifies a commitment by UNC to adapt to the new dynamics of college athletics.
