Tommy Lloyd is emerging as one of the top candidates in North Carolina’s coaching search. He’s gained a high profile at Arizona and built a national program in Tucson, Ariz., where his Wildcats were No. 1 for much of the season.
Lloyd won’t come cheaply, though, with an $11-million buyout if he leaves before April 15. Lloyd is signed through the 2029–30 season, earning roughly $4.4 million annually plus $700,000 in supplemental-duties compensation.
