Davis is a pretty good coach but couldn't stand the NCAA violations. This puts the team in a pickle because the season is a month away! Who will the Tarheels hire? They cannot have Mack Back, that is for sure.

 
Waiting this long is a damn joke. Not sure what the AD and president were thinking (the D is also stepping down, just not right now). If they were gonna fire Butch, it should've been right after last season with all of the suspensions they had. Waiting until 1 month before the season is pretty damned ignorant.

At least a former Longhorn is taking over. Good luck to Coach Everett Withers.

 
Withers and Mack Brown go way back to the early 80's when Mack was head coach at Appalachian State. I believe Withers was an assistant coach with him there. This is a sad event for the North Carolina program. Hell, they had like 15 guys suspended for the opener vs. LSU last year. Like you I wish Withers the best of luck with the powder blue. In the event they suck, they still have a fine hoops team.

 
No way Mack Brown leaves Texas for Chapel Hill. He has it waaaaaay too good in Austin. The only condiitional which make him leave is if he has another horrible year and "resigns." I cannot take another year like last, fellas.
