Since a lot of people took objection to my post, let me respond. Butch Davis has recruited a lot of good players and won a lot of games. But what has he achieved anywhere, that will make a fan of a different program say, “**** he was amazing” 15 years from now? I’m not talking about “would’ve won a title if not for a BCS error,” not “would’ve won a title if he stayed,” not someone won a title with “his” players, not “he was about to be really good” at UNC, and certainly not “he would’ve won without sanctions.” Maybe the last point would’ve been true here but at UNC the infractions happened under his watch. His NFL record was miserable but I won’t knock him for that as much because even Saban struggled with the Dolphins. But we must ask ourselves, as amazing as the Dorsey to Shockey play was against FSU, how did we even end up in that situation? Up 17-0 at half which in that era would’ve been like blowing our lead to Notre Dame last year.
