Former UNC strength coach critical of Butch Davis

Posted Aug 8, 2011
"One of the things that I think is important is discipline. I've been through some situations where I felt like it should have been emphasized more. We're going to make sure that's taken care of here (at ECU)." The last statement from (former UNC Strength & Conditioning coach Jeff) Connors sounds like a reference to Butch Davis. Connors is on record saying that he questioned the former Tar Heels coach's degree of commitment to conditioning during the season. (Bonesville.net)
