REPORT: North Carolina Hiring Scott Drew to Replace Hubert Davis for SHOCKING Reason? It's SO DUMB!

North Carolina Tar Heels reportedly target Baylor Bears' Scott Drew as their next head coach, but is this coaching rumor built on shaky logic? Pete Thamel’s bombshell puts Drew—a veteran with a national championship—at the top of UNC’s “realistic” list, sparking debate given his recent history of turning down blue blood programs like Kentucky and Louisville. Host Cam Stuart questions UNC’s strategy, breaking down why Drew’s buyout, program continuity, and Baylor’s not-so-poor NIL resources complicate his candidacy. With names like Ben McCollum and Grant McCasland also in play, Stewart highlights the challenges facing the UNC athletic department, from budget constraints to internal pressure for a blockbuster hire. Will UNC land their top target, or is this another offseason of high-profile swings and misses among college basketball’s elite? 00:00 — UNC Interested in Scott Drew Discussion of Pete Thamel’s report that North Carolina wants Scott Drew as their next head coach; reactions to the news. 03:04 — Realistic Options & Drew's History Breakdown of "realistic" candidates, Scott Drew's previous job rejections, and analysis of whether UNC is truly a fit. 08:07 — Why Scott Drew Unlikely Assessment of UNC’s resources, job prestige, and why Drew is unlikely to leave Baylor for North Carolina.
