Easy answer to the Butch vs. Fedora debate:
Would UNC give up Fedora to get Butch back?
I'm guessing they wouldn't ...
If they wouldn't trade Fedora for Butch, that would suggest they view Fedora as the better coach ...
Lol...you guys KILL me. Ok, so how many are casual football fans vs. Canes fans on here? So Larry is better than Butch, b/c in year four against a powder puff schedule he's 9-1? Let's go down his history b/4 we crown him:
In year one he started off 8-4...not bad for a first year coach taking over a mess, but in year two he went to 7-6, and then in year three he went to 6-7. But now that's he's 9-1 we should hire him?? Could it be that the 9-1 is very similar to when Miami started off 7-0 in 2013?
Game one, L to a bad USCe team
Game two, blow out to out their brethren UNC...A&T
Game three, blow out of Illinois (we know the problems they are having there)
Game four, blow out of the mighty Delaware Fighting Blue Hens
Game five, win against an overrated, back to earth GT team
Game six, blow out against their other basketball arch rival, Wake Forest
Game seven, win against the UVA Cavaliers
Game eight, win against an up and coming Pitt team
Game nine, win against a spiraling Duke team
Game ten, win against us
So out of the 9 wins, 2 of them came at the expense of 2 FCS teams and the other 7 came at the expense of teams who compiled a 47% winning pct.
How many ranked teams have Fedora beat this year? How many ranked teams have Fedora played this year?
You can't even compare the two in coaching abilities. Butch had
#8 LSU,
#16 FSU,
#15 VT and
#25 NC State on the schedule, this w/ 13 impactful players missing from his roster!
Some of will go to great lengths to try to trash Butch and you STILL haven't learned your lesson from when he was here. Is it b/c he made us all out to look bad for calling for his head? Is it b/c it took him 5 years to finally get us back to being the bullies on the block? Or is it b/c he left when he was building a dynasty in the making and you resent him b/c now look at us?
Whatever it is, get over it. You don't need to try to put him down by elevating a corch who's doing a good job against a weak schedule.
