i say bs we cant afford someone like him. our football team has to bring in WAY more $$ than unc-gay

11/8/2006 11:35:02 PM

^its the athletic program as a whole, not just the football team, and i can promise you carolina rapes us in that department

11/8/2006 11:36:16 PM

^ not by as much as you might think... someone had a list of the top grossing public athletic departments and we really weren't that far from the top (obviously it's unc and everyone else, but still)

[Edited on November 8, 2006 at 11:45 PM. Reason : nd's not public ]

11/8/2006 11:42:05 PM

maybe raped wasnt the right word, but its stupid to think our program/department brings in WAY more than unc

11/8/2006 11:43:17 PM

As a Browns fan, this gives me another reason to hate UNC

11/8/2006 11:51:11 PM

^^^i remember that list...UNC was third and NCSU was fourth

just to make matters worse, they are reporting on Inside Carolina (well, not they, just one guy who says he has a credible source and just for info. he was the first one to call the Davis thing on there when he was hired) that Davis is going to try very hard to hire Steve Logan as the OC. Rumors are that they have ties that go back to Oklahoma State or somewhere and like each other. Other rumor is that Logan is ready to get back into college football as a head coach but knows he needs to be an assistant first b/c no one would hire him at this point out of radio broadcasting and being away from college fball for so long.

Davis as their head coach and Logan as their OC sounds like nightmares for us for years to come

11/9/2006 12:00:04 AM

My only question is that how in the fuck were they outrecruiting us with Bunting still in there? They just updated the Rivals Top 100 and there were 2 UNC commits and 0 for us. On top of that they have far more 3 and 4 *s than us.

They've blown for nearly 3 years now and are still getting better recruits than us? That tells me something...

11/9/2006 12:03:19 AM

^That tells me that Earl is an idiot and needs to stfu.

11/9/2006 12:04:52 AM

^^exactly. It tells you where a lot of high school football players think our program may be headed.

[Edited on November 9, 2006 at 12:05 AM. Reason : ^]

11/9/2006 12:05:24 AM

its because chuck has a great eye for talent and doesnt go by rivals top 100 rankings because tehy are not accurate on who will be the best college player.

11/9/2006 12:10:26 AM

^jay davis, marcus stone, derek morris are three that come to mind w/o even thinking about it that were top 100 talent and we see how they turned out

and also he mentioned that they have more 3 and 4 star guys, a lot of which are not top 100 players; just better than what we are getting

[Edited on November 9, 2006 at 12:13 AM. Reason : .]

11/9/2006 12:12:43 AM

its alot of 2 star players end up being way better than 3 star players.

11/9/2006 12:14:31 AM

^^^ It's not like we aren't going hard after these guys. They simply aren't choosing us. Though I will give Chuck credit for finding Manny Lawson, who was not on ANYONES radar...

I still find it very disturbing that a Bunting-led UNC was still outrecruiting us.. I can only imagine what a Butch Davis-led UNC will do in state..

I don't have the time to piss away arguing tonight though...

[Edited on November 9, 2006 at 12:15 AM. Reason : carat]

11/9/2006 12:15:31 AM

we have one good example of that and that is manny lawson

here is a link to the top 100 for 2003 so these guys would be redshirt juniors and true seniors: i sure do recognize a lot of their names; the top 100 pans out way more than it does not

11/9/2006 12:16:25 AM

^he will turn them around, but he will probably also be out of there very shortly; problem is at that point he could hand it off to someone in good shape and it would keep rolling for them

11/9/2006 12:18:08 AM

fuck unc

11/9/2006 8:27:23 AM

11/9/2006 8:45:04 AM

that top 100 should tell us how much we've slipped in recruiting

have we even landed a top 100 in the past 2 years?

11/9/2006 10:39:27 AM

i read the first 4 posts and yall are fucking idiots.

11/9/2006 10:53:45 AM

I think it's funny how some of you are trying to act like this isn't a huge hire. You're delusional if you don't think this helps UNC.

11/9/2006 2:08:14 PM

its very huge, and I also dont get the people that think he is using it as a stepping stone to a bigger program... Davis doesnt need that, he could have had the Miami job right now if he wanted it...

11/9/2006 5:30:59 PM

God I hope he fucks them over and doesnt coach there.

JUST ON PTI they said:

will he do well at UNC with a powerhouse potential?
Wilbon-he should be ok, he may do well there, good talent potential
Tony-UNC is a Sleeping Giant...its a great Hire. NC State has settled into mediocrity

Butch Davis will do well

will get them to the top five for a year or so

then will pull a Mack Brown

11/10/2006 12:56:49 PM

can someone please post a link to a news story stating that he has the job, b/c i can't find one and just think you guys are a bunch of babies crying about nothing.

11/10/2006 1:43:27 PM

Its not official, UNC keeps denying it

I'm telling you, Butch will not sign until he knows nothing better is gonna open up

[Edited on November 10, 2006 at 1:45 PM. Reason : .]

11/10/2006 1:45:21 PM

there are plenty of stories, the w-s journal broke it

but there were also plenty of stories about us having barnes in the bag

nothing is official yet

if he has already signed, unc is probably just waiting until after the homecoming game

wouldn't be very curt to announce the new coach with the old one singing the alma mater at the 50 yard line

did you watch them say it on PTI
they way they were talking about us and UNC was night and day

UNC is a sleeping giant and d00k is shitty and NCSU is on the way to the shitter

11/13/2006 10:30:44 AM

how can UNC be getting better most of their team is seniors that suck. They have no QB and their offensive line is 4 SR and one Jr. They will continue to stink.

i did....and yes, they did say we were like night and day, but they never said that we as a school have accepted mediocracy...they just said that our team slipped back to being mediocre again.

theres a difference between being mediocre, and accepting it.

that would be a godsend for an incoming coach, because he will have a ton of eligible scholarships at his disposal. he'll be able to get a ton of new talent his first year there.
