North Carolina coach Hubert Davis will have a tough time topping his debut season helming the Heels after guiding the program to an unexpected national championship game appearance. Now, he’ll do so with the comfort of a new contract.
The school and Davis have agreed to a new six-year contract worth a total of $16.7 million, the Associated Press reports. The deal will run through the 2027-28 season, and could be worth a $1.1 million annual raise if performance bonuses are met.
Davis will make an average of nearly $2.8 million per year, beginning with $2.3 million this season and $3.1 million in the final year of the deal.
