Four words from Kaimon Rucker said it all Saturday, some 40 minutes after North Carolina took apart Virginia 41-14 at Scott Stadium. "The Butcher’ is back!" Rucker’s nickname is "The Butcher," and him being back meant UNC had its best defensive player doing what he always does on a football field. And that’s where the he’s-back part of this is relevant.
