Butch Davis works in fast lane at UNC

Posted Mar 20, 2007

Those who have been around Butch Davis have been struck by his organization and vision. He arrived in Chapel Hill with a plan and wasted no time implementing it. Asked how his teams will play, Davis didn't talk about schemes. Instead, he talked about style. "I'm a big proponent of being very aggressive in all three phases," he said. "I always want us to be attacking and to be very disciplined. I'm obsessive about us being a smart team." (Charlotte Observer)
