OT: Hubert Davis leaving ESPN for job at UNC

Spot on Gameday now open. Jay Williams? Adrian Branch? Gottlieb?
 
Hubert was such a homer. Good riddance.
 
Put me in the good riddance camp.

"I'm not a big #'s guy, but blah blah blah. [Insert Top 20 team] needs to stop settling for jump shots, put the ball on the floor and get to the basket. If they can do that they have the ability to get to a F4 and win a national championship".

Pretty sure if they just recorded this speech and replaced him with a cardboard cut-out nobody would know he wasn't there next yr.
 
Gottlieb deserves it, but they can't put him next to Digger in such a high profile spot.

He would just embarrass Digger constantly.
 
Seth Greenberg cause him and Digger are tight. Gottlieb deserves the spot but is a such and has a radio show as well that is why Greenberg will get it.
 
The hoops GameDay crew seems to follow the same hiring guidelines as the football crew:

Host: Chris Fowler---Rece Davis
Old former coach: Lee Corso---Digger Phelps
Middle aged former player: Kirk Herbstreit---Jay Bilas
Younger former player: Desmond Howard---Hubert Davis

If they are going to replace Hubert Davis, they are going to go for a youngish former player.

My best guesses are Miles Simon or Dougie.
 
Sounds like ESPN canned him and let him find work before they announced he was being replaced.
