Seth Davis reveals Hubert Davis said 'yes' to returning

College basketball analyst Seth Davis says Hubert Davis said yes to returning but decision still lingers.

Many expected there to be some sort of decision made on North Carolina Tar Heels' head coach Hubert Davis, following the team's loss to VCU on Thursday night. With rumblings that a change was coming over the weekend, no official decision has been made. Right now, it sounds like it won't be made until later in the week, leading to more speculation.

It also opens up the door for more talking heads to offer input as well. But one college basketball analyst offered his insight into the situation and has a surprising detail. Seth Davis took to X to offer his thoughts and something he heard in terms of Davis returning or not: Not sure I've seen many situations like the one that is happening at North Carolina regarding Hubert Davis.

My understanding is the administration asked Hubert if he wants to continue, and he said emphatically yes. To let it go on for this long with no decision is not fair to anyone. At this point it would be very very difficult to bring him back.

He would enter next season under a huge cloud. Usually the best strategy in this situation is to rip the Band-Aid off and make a decision one way or the other. To let it linger for this long is unnecessary and healthy.
