The page turns at Carolina

Posted Nov 27, 2006

On Monday at 3 p.m., a new and exciting era in North Carolina football will begin when the school officially introduces Butch Davis as the head football coach. The public will not be allowed into the press conference, but anyone who wishes may watch it on the jumbo screen at Kenan Stadium. This is not a marriage like that of Roy Williams and Carolina basketball, a match whose likelihood of failure was infinitesimal. (Chapel Hill News)
