Can Larry Fedora Fill Butch Davis' Hat?

Posted Dec 27, 2011
North Carolina ended the Butch Davis and Co. era last night with a 41-24 loss to Missouri that wasn't that close. The program now turns to recruiting under new coach Larry Fedora, who came to Chapel Hill by way of a Conference USA title at Southern Miss. It won't be that difficult for Fedora to be a better coach than Butch Davis. But it will be almost impossible for Fedora to be a better talent evaluator than Davis. (SB Nation)
