Butch Davis has done something no other Tar Heels coach has ever done: he has embarrassed the University of North Carolina.

The scandals involving contacts between agents and UNC football players, and the still unresolved academic problems with players are serious issues.

It looks like the University, actually THE University when it comes to taking the concept of the student athlete seriously, has sold it soul for 8 win seasons.

As it should be with all things Carolina, the question is what would Dean do? I respectfully say, when a coach tarnishes the reputation and standing of the University of North Carolina, Dean would ask that coach to step down.

And that what this blog requests of Chancellor Holden Thorp.

Pittman replaces Blake

Carolina announced yesterday that Sam Pittman has replaced John Blake as associate head coach.  Blake resigned last year at the start of the NCAA's investigation of UNC football.

The NCAA determined that Blake was a runner for a well known player agent. Carolina has NOT revealed which agent Pittman is 'working' for, nor can we figure out why Butch Davis is still the head coach in Chapel Hill.

I know Davis is a lock to win eight games every year.  However, the win total pales in comparison to the number of players suspended by the University or the NCAA in the last 14 months.   

Fire Butch Davis!
