Everett Withers named UNC's coach, for now

Posted Jul 29, 2011
New North Carolina football coach Everett Withers is sitting on "G" and waiting for "O." The man is ready to get at it. Withers, the defensive coordinator the last three years for the Tar Heels, was named the interim head coach Friday, replacing Butch Davis, who was fired suddenly Wednesday amidst a myriad of NCAA allegations. Withers will have the job through the entire 2011 season, but after that, nobody knows what will happen with UNC's program. (Fox Sports South)
