North Carolina coach Hubert Davis has signed a two-year extension running through the 2029-30 season and has made a significant move by hiring basketball agent Jim Tanner as the men's basketball program's executive director and general manager.
The school announced Tanner’s hiring Tuesday, following Davis' recent plans to bring in a GM in light of players being able to profit from their name, image, and likeness. Davis' updated contract, signed in December, includes a raise, with an average salary of $3.2 million in base salary and supplemental pay.
