UNC criticized for Butch Davis' pay raise
Posted Nov 24, 2007
Former UNC system President Bill Friday criticized a college athletics "arms race" Friday, two days after UNC-Chapel Hill announced a $291,000 raise for football coach Butch Davis. Davis got a one-year contract extension and the raise despite posting a 3-8 record heading into the final game today against Duke. The UNC-CH board of trustees has to approve the raise, which would bring his compensation to an average of more than $2 million a year.
