On March 25, North Carolina has parted ways with head coach Hubert Davis after five seasons, sparking a high-stake search for his replacement. The Tar Heels initially targeted Boston Celtics executive Brad Stevens as their top choice, hoping to lure back the former Butler standout to chapel. Hill. Earlier this week, sources confirmed Stevens has no plans to leave his front-off his role in Boston. He's built a powerhouse roster there and shows full commitment to the NBA side of the game. Fans and insiders hope for a big splash, given Stevens' track record of taking Butler to back-to-back national championship games in 2010 and 2011. But he's turned down college jobs before, sticking to his stance since joining the pros in 2013. Now the focus turns to other big names, like Florida's Todd Golden, who faces a $16 million buyout, along with Arizona's Tommy Lloyd, Alabama's Nate Oats, and Michigan's Dusty May. North Carolina's athletic director must weigh these options carefully. With Stevens out, the Tar Heels will zero in on proven college

leaders ready for the name, image, and likeness challenges while upholding the program's storied legacy.
