Time's not awasting for Davis and North Carolina football

Posted Jul 27, 2008

So many of us take time for granted. Carolina football coach Butch Davis has said "never again" to such behavior. More than a year ago, he underwent chemotherapy for cancer. Suddenly, he had discovered the value of time and the lack of any promise to any of us. "Even the cancer deal has made me a much, much better coach," Davis said. "I have a greater appreciation for every day and the relationships." (Chapel Hill News)
