Rumor: Butch Davis contacted

For all these guys talking about Butch being 67, just remember our country’s President is 72 and is signed up until at least 74. He seems to be quite energetic, if anything else.

So let’s cut the age crap with Butch. Can he do the job? Is he still passionate and fiery about football? Yes.

Yeaaa because being a President is the same as coaching

If they want Mario, they simply wait 2/1 to formally hire him and avoid the 10 mil buyout. All of the assistants could technically be in place. It’d be a lawsuit but I’ll take Miami lawyers over Oregon ones any day.


Mario's buyout drops to 8 million on 2/1 ..... and you think that will make them think it is a bargain???

Thanks for admitting you have zero evidence he's "nearing end of prime", your specious conjecture

It’s obviously harder. Trump is 5 years older than Butch. You talk like you’d expect Butch in a nursing home or something. Would you prefer Manny Diaz over Butch?

Fire, coaching ability and unmatched talent evaluator/development, sorely needed here
So where was that at UNC?? Why was he shown the door??..why hasn’t he garnered another gig other than FIU? There been numerous big time programs who were vacant..FSU..UF..USC..Bama..Texas..LLSU why did they all pass him up??..
 
No.

Wrong again.

You gotta study up - but Butch was the coach for UM - that put together the 2000, 2001, and 2002 teams.
really? I would have never known by the level of BOTCH lovery that is in this site. :rolleyes:

Read up - we actually had teams back then, too.
Yes. The ones he abandoned without accomplishing anything of relevance.

Oh. And JJ was long gone by then. It was Butch. All Butch.
Your absolutely right. Hence, the constant BOTCHERY afterwards.

****, I feel sorry for anyone that tried to copy some of your test questions.
No one really copied my tests, but I also didnt BOTCH them either.

He’s nearing the end of his prime because he 67!!! You think he’s gonna coach another 10 years?? He’s probably gonna retire within the next 5 years
 
It’s obviously harder. Trump is 5 years older than Butch. You talk like you’d expect Butch in a nursing home or something. Would you prefer Manny Diaz over Butch?
No I’d prefer jimbo over Butch in a heartbeat tho...and based on the fact the country hasn’t gone completely to **** yet under trump..I submize being president is not as hard as coaching major college football
 
So where was that at UNC?? Why was he shown the door??.

University of North Carolina

Davis at the 2007 ACC Football Kickoff
On November 13, 2006, University of North Carolina athletic director **** Baddour announced that Davis had been hired as the school's new head football coach. On November 27, 2006, Davis officially succeeded John Bunting, who was fired in October 2006 after posting one winning season in the previous six seasons as head coach of the Tar Heels. Davis took over a program that had seen three winning seasons in the past eight years and had won more than six games in a season two other times.

During his first season as head coach, the 2007 Tar Heels finished 4–8, with six of those losses coming by a touchdown or less and two coming against teams ranked in the top 15 at the time. Despite a losing record in 2007, North Carolina fans averaged over 57,000 fans in Kenan Stadium during the season, the highest average attendance since the Mack Brown era. The 2007 matchup against South Carolina saw a crowd of 61,000, the second-largest in school history. During the season, suspicion mounted that Davis would leave UNC after his first year if the head coaching job at his alma mater, Arkansas, opened up. The rumors grew louder when Houston Nutt was forced to resign at Arkansas, but Davis denied he was leaving. On November 21, 2007, Davis agreed to a one-year contract extension, along with a raise of about $291,000 annually. Davis said in a statement that one year at UNC convinced him that this was where he wanted to be, and that he intended to have "a long and successful career in Chapel Hill."[3] Davis originally signed a seven-year deal worth approximately $1.86 million per season, with a base salary of $286,000. Additionally, he received $25,000 a year in expenses and a supplement from the Educational Foundation (Ram's Club) that ranged from $1 million in 2007 to $1.3 million in 2013. Baddour said he could not release all the details of the contract until it was approved by the school's board of trustees, but did say the base salary would rise $29,000, the expenses would go up $5,000, and Davis’ supplemental income would go up $100,000.

The 2008 North Carolina Tar Heels football team were expected to be much improved from the previous year, with most outlets picking them to finish second in the Coastal Division. On October 4, the Heels defeated the then 24th-ranked Connecticut Huskies 38–12 for their first victory over a ranked non-conference opponent in 11 years. As a result, the Tar Heels were ranked 22nd in the weekly Associated Press rankings, their first appearance in a major poll in seven years. The following Saturday, the Tar Heels defeated the Notre Dame Fighting Irish, their first regular-season win as a ranked team in 11 years. A crowd of 60,500, third-largest in school history, watched the Tar Heels play the Fighting Irish. A 16–13 overtime loss at Virginia on October 18 briefly knocked the Heels out of the rankings, but after a 45-24 victory over Boston College on October 25, the team became bowl-eligible for the first time since 2004. The win also resulted in the team being ranked in the Bowl Championship Series rankings for the first time since the BCS began in 1998. A week later, they defeated Georgia Tech to clinch their first winning season since 2001, and only their fourth since Brown left the school after the 1997 season. The Tar Heels lost three of their last four games, including a loss in the Meineke Car Care Bowl to West Virginia.

Davis coming through campus before UNC's game against Florida State in 2009
Davis led the 2009 Tar Heels to another 8–4 regular season record and a second straight bowl appearance, the first time since the 1997–1998 seasons that UNC had made consecutive bowl appearances. A loss to North Carolina State in the final game of the season sent them back to the Meineke Car Care Bowl. UNC faced the Pittsburgh Panthers on December 26, 2009 and lost for the second straight year, giving UNC another 8-5 final record. Additionally, Davis led Carolina football to its 6th consecutive year of graduating more than 75% of its football players. The America Football Coaches Association recognized fewer than 30 public universities for superior graduation rates last year, with UNC the only such institution in the state of North Carolina and the Atlantic Coast Conference
