Butch was an awesome recruiter and decent coach. Yes, he helped assemble the greatest team of all time. But it wasn't just Butch you idiots. It was the entire staff and it was the players who coached themselves to a National title. Every time I hear Butch's team I laugh. You guys thinking of starting a Gofundme for David Blatt any time soon so he can get his ring too?
Now two decades later after being owned by the NFL and NCAA he is coaching at some trash mid major school. Said school whose greatest claim to fame is TY Hilton or getting their *** kicked by us, both literally and figuratively, in the OB stadium.
Every time we play a team coached by Butch we see threads pop up right and left. Usually, unintelligible threads who pump this guy up like he is the Sultan of Swat when, in fact, he is currently the Sultan of Jack Squat. The dude moved on for money. I can't blame him but now he wants to come back and you all buy in that he is this football god. Let me ask you - why is he coaching at FIU and not some other school that has a shot at winning something of relevance?
Many here would have you believe if the AD would have hired the guy, who threw us to the side and then had major NCAA issues, we would be so much better off. The problem is there is no evidence to support this homer claim within the last 15 years. Of course he wanted the job. He couldn't find a better job anywhere else. You think he really deserved it? Do you really think we should have chanced it on a guy who helped orchestrate a vacation of 16 wins while he coached UNC? He is a road apple at this point. He is worse than a Les Miles or Mack Brown. He can't beat Kiffin who has made him his daddy. So just stop praising this guy.
The problem is we haven't had better since he left. It is sad but it is less of a reflection of Butch and more of a reflection of our ineptitude. Last I checked you don't see LSU clamoring about bringing back Nick Saban. A coach who is 10x better than your boy - the Almighty Butch Davis.
Praise is fine. Blind ignorance is another. The line is always broken here. The past is the past. We understand where we came from. The problem is you have to evolve. Live in the past and your are no better than the Blake James or any other idiot that has run our AD into the ground.
Now let's kick the **** out of this team on a baseball field.
