BUTCH DAVIS TO UNC.
It’s done: Butch Davis will be the coach at UNC next year.
Insta-quick Analysis: Butch Davis won’t be coaching Miami. Or anywhere else. He will, in fact, be coaching at UNC. In Chapel Hill, North Carolina. He will be wearing powder blue, most likely, and could gain an extra fifteen pound eating good barbecue. He will probably also wear a headset, hire some assistants, and then begin recruiting players.
In addition: He’ll probably say gosh a lot. ‘Cause Butch Davis does that.
You heard it here first! Gimme a fucking siren! WOOOO!!!


Butch Davis: will likely be wearing powder blue.

Craig T. Nelson (John L. Smith) might please Bruins Nation, especially if he brings Dauber and Luther for some hijinks.

Jamie Pollard fired Wayne Morgan (deservedly) and replaced him with Greg McDermott, which was a great move in my opinion. He fired a good wrestling coach, Bobby Douglass, and replaced him with Cael Sanderson. It was a really bad situation, but I can’t argue with hiring Cael.
Now, he’s fired McCarney, who means far more to ISU’s football program than either of the others meant to their programs. All I’ll say is, he’d better have a good goddamn coach lined up to take Mac’s place.

Apparently the deal is not done or so say the two sides. The present speculation centers on a desire to wait until after homecoming out of sensitivity to the coach they summarily dismissed mid-season. Both UNC and NC State have a penchant for having news like this come out and it ends up not being the case. We will probably have to wait until Monday to see how it unfolds.

You guys have really jumped the gun, Davis has not signed a contract or agreement with UNC.
http://www.newsobserver.com/122/story/508124.html
“UNC General Counsel Leslie Strohm was asked by The N&O via e-mail Wednesday for any “contracts, documents or agreements that have been signed with Paul Hilton “Butch” Davis in regard to the football program at UNC,” Strohm responded at 6:48 p.m.: “The University has no documents responsive to this request.”

How many times can you go back down and use a stepping stone? If he wanted he could have waited on the Miami job, no?

If it is true that Butchie is going to UNC, can we all agree that this will be a 3-4 year stepping stone job for Butch?
