Former UNC Coach Hubert Davis Joins TNT Sports as College Basketball Analyst for 2026-27 Season

Former North Carolina head coach Hubert Davis is making a move to broadcasting, joining TNT Sports as a studio and game analyst for the 2026-27 college basketball season. Davis, who led the Tar Heels to the 2022 national championship game, brings deep ACC experience and a player's perspective to the network's expanding college hoops coverage. The hire adds a recognizable name to TNT Sports' roster as it continues to invest in live college basketball rights. Davis spent nine seasons as an assistant at UNC before taking over as head coach in 2021, compiling a 78-31 record over three seasons. His transition to television follows a wave of former coaches moving into analyst roles, offering fans insider insight into the game. TNT Sports, which already airs NBA and NHL games, will feature Davis across studio shows and select game broadcasts, giving the network a credible voice for marquee matchups. The move signals TNT's commitment to competing with ESPN and Fox for college basketball viewers. Davis' first assignment will tip off in November 2026.
