Because, I believe that we're discussing the HC job at Miami. That is the discussion that's most relevant - not what was done at UNC.
It's true that he coached at UNC and did....okay.... there....It should be quite obvious that the data of most importance are the parts that are most closely related to the job - those data are his time at Miami.

I'll briefly comment on this from his time as the HC at Miami (since that is the most salient one).
The Miami team Butch took over from Dennis wasn't exactly loaded. If memory serves me, Erickson lost his last 3 bowl games. That includes a walloping from an Alabama defense (with Antonio Langham, Levon Kirkland and gang). That was the first time I'd ever seen a Miami team get crushed by another team's defense. And we had played top defenses before....The last 2-3 years under Erickson had an absolute sieve for an OL....
Butch also had 31 scholarship reductions during his Miami tenure.
It should be obvious that his record while the HC of Miami during his first stint would've been improved without scholarship reductions (and of course if he would've been handed a loaded roster like Johnson and Erickson and especially Coker were).
If Butch is named the HC, I believe he'd do very well. Better than the first time because he wouldn't have scholarship reductions (or maybe 1-2 remain from the Shapiro issue, but very few). Also, the team does have talent, including a top college QB for a couple more years.
Perhaps we'll find out this week who the new HC will be....
The BOT needs to be reminded of this............
28-23 overall and 15-17 in the ACC
He is talking about his performance at UNC. Not sure why you went on some Tangent about his performance at Miami.
