Sorensen: Tar Heels’ football program, Butch Davis deserved sanctions

Posted Mar 12, 2012
Under head coach Butch Davis, North Carolina football was like a kid whose parents allowed him to do anything he wanted while they talked on their cell phone in another room. There was little discipline. But there were some cool agent-sponsored parties. Most of the North Carolina graduates I know are ashamed of the program. They want to believe their school stands for something. They did believe that. They were wrong. (Charlotte Observer)
