Butch Davis brings new attitude to Tar Heels

Posted Jul 31, 2007

When he was hired as North Carolina football coach in November, Butch Davis said he wasn't going to look back at what the Tar Heels didn't accomplish under the previous regime, he'd just look ahead to the future. With that credo in mind, it's no surprise that positive thinking is among the differences marking UNC's new staff. And the early returns are quite favorable. (Wilmington Star News)
