Butch Davis Is Only The Symptom, Not The Disease At UNC
Some may think that the never-ending problems at UNC would be solved by the termination of Butch Davis, and to a degree they would be right: the Tarheels would be rid of the man who worries more about the blue pinstripes on his players’ uniforms than whether his assistant coaches are wantonly violating NCAA rules. But […]
