What could have been?

Posted Jan 7, 2010
After Chuck Amato and John Bunting were purged from the area at the end of the 2006 season, Paul Johnson emerged as the rare candidate for both N.C. State and UNC. If not for a Chuck Neinas end-around to find Tom O'Brien, at another ACC school, Johnson could be State's coach right now. If Butch Davis had decided to wait for a bigger job, Johnson could be UNC's coach right now. (Raleigh News & Observer)
