North Carolina interim chancellor Lee Roberts publicly backed athletics director Bubba Cunningham on Thursday
, three days after the school’s board of trustees approved an audit of the athletics department due to financial concerns growing amid the volatile landscape of college sports. Roberts also said the athletics department has been audited 10 times in the past five years, as well as annually by the NCAA. “I would just add that our athletic director is one of the most senior, well-respected, admired athletic directors in the country,” Roberts told reporters in Chapel Hill after a trustees meeting.
Trustee Jennifer Halsey Evans said a preliminary budget proposal included a $17 million deficit for the 2024-25 academic year and $100 million in cumulative debts ahead. “There are real issues here, a real concern that one of our most valuable assets and something that really generates revenue is not being managed properly,” she said in the meeting.
