According to a report from Inside Carolina on Friday, Greg Robinson is no longer a candidate for the Tar Heels’ defensive coordinator position.
Multiple sources reported Thursday that new UNC head coach Mack Brown had named Robinson and former player Tommy Thigpen to be co-defensive coordinators for the Tar Heels. Those reports stated that Robinson had been in Chapel Hill, and that he had been informally introduced as the team’s new defensive coordinator.
That news was met with widespread criticism, and sources have now confirmed that Robinson is no longer in contention for the position.
