Butch Davis’ love of coaching survives amid pandemic-battered year of heartache for FIU
Posted Nov 6, 2020
I last spoke to Butch Davis less than one year ago. I had never seen him happier, then. His FIU Panthers football team had finally beaten the Miami Hurricanes for the first time. Not quite one year later, Davis is a coach inside a team inside a pandemic. Few programs have been hit harder or seen their season more strewn about by the COVID-19 plague.
