David Glenn, host on the North Carolina Sports Network and “Holding Court” columnist, chats with 97.9 The Hill’s Brighton McConnell on Tuesday, Feb. 25. UNC men’s basketball officially announced its hire of Jim Tanner to be the program’s executive director and general manager, which coincides with a discovery of head coach Hubert Davis signing an extension during the winter. Glenn details why Davis likely got this recently contract boost and what it reflects about the UNC brass’ feelings toward the coach. He also shares his initial reaction to Tanner as a fit for working with UNC, why the program made this move now, and how general managers have fallen within the power structures of other athletics programs that have the job.
