Yes, C.B. McGrath lost too much, but story’s more complicated

Posted Jan 24, 2020
Former UNC assistant C.B. McGrath did not win enough basketball games. That is why he is no longer the head coach of the UNCW men’s program. An 11-game losing streak, complete with a loss to CAA cellar-dweller Elon over the weekend, became the linchpin moment needed for change. It’s not surprising. This move felt inevitable, a matter of when, not if. (Wilmington Star News)
