    You know what? You'd be fooling yourself to suggest that a coach like that is going to be at UNC for ten, fifteen years and then ride off into the sunset. Just take the damn gift, if he comes, and build something worth a damn while he's around.

    Do you have anything to suggest the reports are true or false?

    So if the Heels get Davis, does he still have some contacts in talent rich Florida and get the Heels headed in the right direction?

    What are his strengths as a coach? Recruiter? Coaching?

    he was never that great of a gameplanning coach, even when he was at miami. However, he can recruit pretty damn well.

    Hiring Butch Davis would only get the Tarheels to where they are now, looking for a new coach. Miami has always had prominence no matter who was at the helm. Davis made ZERO headway in Cleveland and is already talking to Miami again. Maybe the rumor about Coker being in Chapel Hill a week ago wasnt as true as it first apeared. Sources in Tallahassee reported that before this season Tommy told Bobby and Jeff that he was looking at moving a bit north and getting a little blue in his diet if he couldnt turn things around in Clemson. Bobby's reply "I'll always love you son, you know when to be a man". Too bad he HAS resurected the tigers.

    IMO, that's not the way to get UNC back to prominence. You need to do what Mack did and make NC your bread and butter that you can augment with some players from other areas. There is just too much competition from the FL schools.
