Butch Davis says he was unaware of Blake's financial ties to sports agent

Posted Sep 30, 2010
Yahoo! Sports released a story on Thursday that financially links sports agent Gary Wichard to former UNC assistant John Blake. The report said that over the past three years six wire transfers were made from Wichard to Blake. Blake also received a credit card in Pro Tect Management's name, Wichard's agency. "I would say that myself, the chancellor, Mr. Baddour, that no one knows what credit cards that anybody carries," head coach Butch Davis said. (WRAL Sports Fan)
