If Butch was hired instead of Richt

Advertisement
The people who don’t like him don’t know he coached at UNC. You’re giving them more credit than they deserve. Sad and true. 😐

Nobody “dislikes” Butch. We’re just sick of his cult. I’ve seen guys say he’s better than Saban on this board. Saban will retire the Goat while Butch will retire at FIU.
 
Man you guys sound like uncle Rico from Napoleon Dynamite. But instead of taking about your accomplishments you are talking about what another man did while at UM. This **** is so funny to me.

Solid response. You’re sick of his cult. 👍 no one in this thread said he’s better than Saben. Well done
 
No, they had about 10 a year. But they cumulatively affected the 85 man roster also. After three years of penalties we could only have 54 scholarship players. Once penalties were removed with the 25/year limit, it took several years to get back to 85. That's why he had to get creative and put redshirts on a track scholarship.
11 schollies right off the bat...
 
If manny ultimately fails I'm joining the cult of Butch. I won't care if he's hired or not I'll just let the thoughts of what could have been keep my fandom alive.
 
Face, nobody said that he's a better coach, but he's dam sure a better recruiter. Saban ain't all that anyway, think about it, think a little deeper than his record. That ***tard is allowed every advantage known to man, including cheating, no way the NCAA dogs ever gonna pay him a visit, he'd have em fired the next day. What would Finebaum do man without his God to worship on tv 24-7. When you have the best players in the country 3 deep, well only Mack Brown could F that up. Dabo dont seem to have a problem outcoaching him, and I bet he's straight up. Nikki bout had a mental breakdown when he got to the bigs, too big for him. You give both equal talent *** whips Saban's *** every time, he's a better football coach. When we had that kid committed, forgot his name, Saban decided he wanted him at the last minute, flew in on the Bama copter landed on their football field and hired the kids dad to coach at Bama just to get the kid. That's bull****. If Texas had that situation and Nikki tried that **** some crazy Horn fan would shoot him down guaranteed, over some cow pasture, nobody would say a thing

bama gets way with murder. see how great saban is (i think is a fantastic coach) on a level playing field.
 
You’re right. Those three were the only other choices. It was them or the guy that can’t win the C-USA.
honestly, it didnt have ot be butch but we hired a burned out perential underachiever who jut got fired and then hired his DC
who isnt that well regarded in coaching circles.

Here you go again with “isn’t well regarded in coaching circles”. That’s a false narrative.

We would be back on probation or facing the death penalty if Butch was hired again. But at this point, it's worth a shot. Horrible game day coach and all.

Go Canes!!!!


See? This is why pups need to sit in the corner and STFU on topics they have absolutely ZERO knowledge of. This is clearly a recent UM fan - if he is at all.

Turnoverchaincane -

1. Butch was hired after the disaster under Erickson. You know, fraud, etc? No, of course you don't know - you were not around the program then.

2. Butch was hired to clean up the program - which was in the schitter - even when the NCAA almost gave us the Death Penalty.

3. What do you know about his gameday coaching - when you've only heard that and learned it by rote? You see - back then - we lost 31 scholarships - and Saban, Jimmy Johnson, Dabo Sweeney, and any other coach you can name - working together - would have a hard time getting through the games -we were so short-handed.

But you wouldn't know schitt about that - either - since you weren't around the program then - or you would haven't posted your exactly opposite BS - about Butch getting us on probation etc., clearly demonstrating you don't know what the **** you're talking about.

It's not so much that you don't know things - it's that you know so many things that just aren't true - and THEN have the lack of judgement required to repeat such false crap.

Maybe you'd do better to stay off the topic of Butch Davis - and maybe go hang out on some cooking threads - somewhere.
 
Where would we be right now. I know one thing for sure... we be ******* loaded with talent!!!! LOADED
From 2008 to 2014 – Davis was the head coach from 2007 through 2010 – no school in the ACC had more players selected in the first round than UNC
He left them full for four years after he moved on. Just like he did at Miami TWICE

we'd be in the same place, with a different coach than butch/ritch. Butch can't even beat la tech.

williams is a talented player. not sure why you felt the need to take a shot at a top 100 kid who are better than the kids butch recruits currently
Butch recruits kids who might actually go to his school so im pretty sure he isn't recruiting top 100 recruits so theres no reason to even talk about this. This **** gets so comical.

i didnt bring it up. dude was trashing one of our commits (happens to be a good kid and a talented player) as not one of the "goons" butch would bring in.
 
FIU has gotten worse as more of "Butch's guys" have enrolled. He had more success with the guys he inherited from the previous staff. You'd think a guy with such an eye for talent would have improved the roster but they've gotten worse.

Butch cut a lot of corners to get those kids at North Carolina and the Tar Heels program paid a price.

That was also a decade ago; prior to Clemson and Alabama becoming the full-blown machines they are. Saban got the Crimson Tide his first title there in 2009 and he's owned recruiting ever since.

Butch can recruit, but to believe he'd just have re-locked down South Florida from 2016 and beyond in this current climate is a stretch—and I'm a Davis supporter that wrote a handful of articles calling for him to be rehired at the time.
