Butch Davis feels good after cancer treatments

Posted Jul 20, 2007

The North Carolina football coach -- who finished precautionary chemotherapy treatments in early May -- was sporting new hair growth and a big grin at Thursday's Triangle Pigskin Preview. He said it's too early to say he is "cured," but his tests -- the most recent this week -- continue to come back negative for cancer. (Raleigh News & Observer)
