Posted Jun 25, 2012
Eleven months after Butch Davis was dismissed as the school’s head football coach, his son, Drew, has enrolled at North Carolina and will be a part of the football program. “I talked with UNC and they told me he did enroll,” Chapel Hill (N.C.) East head football coach Bill Renner said. According to a source close to UNC, Davis, a 6-foot-2, 195-pound quarterback, was offered a preferred walk-on spot and enrolled in the second summer semester. (Inside Carolina)
