Withers had UNC football's dream

Posted Dec 24, 2011
Everett Withers grew up in Charlotte wanting to play football at North Carolina, never imagining that one day he'd be the coach there. So when the opportunity came - when UNC named Withers its interim coach after firing Butch Davis, it was, in some ways, like a dream. Now that dream is ending. Monday, Withers will coach the Tar Heels for the final time when they play Missouri in the Independence Bowl in Shreveport, La. (5 p.m., ESPN2). (Charlotte Observer)
