Going nose to nose
Posted Dec 20, 2006
N.C. State football coach Tom O'Brien's first encounter with North Carolina's Butch Davis was memorable. O'Brien was coaching at Boston College and attending his first Big East Conference media day, and Davis was the coach at Miami. After making his remarks, O'Brien collided with Davis as the two passed on the podium. "I bumped into him and almost went flying off the stage," a smiling O'Brien said Tuesday.
