"If I leave now, that makes me a deadbeat dad, because this is my family," he told them. "I want to finish my career right here at Miami." A few days after Miami's 37-20 victory completed an 11-1 season and cemented a No. 2 national ranking, he told them, "We're going to work our asses off in the off-season, harder than we've worked before. This is going to be an incredible season. We're going to win the national championship<BR/><BR/>Three days before the Sugar Bowl, at a time when three NFL teams were searching for a coach and four more would follow suit, he responded to a rumor that he was soon to visit with Browns management by saying, "Don't they have a coach? I'm happy in South Florida. My family loves it there. I plan to coach at Miami for a long time." <BR/><BR/>This from the NYTimes<BR/><BR/>Asked about the Browns job after the Hurricanes completed the season with an 11-1 record, the No. 2 ranking and a victory over Florida in the Sugar Bowl, Davis said, ''I have no desire whatsoever for the Browns to contact me.''Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6039124955271190898.post-87043497003203607172008-11-12T19:36:00.000-05:002008-11-12T19:36:00.000-05:00Guess Butchy worked out a deal with UNC for anothe...Guess Butchy worked out a deal with UNC for another raise and extension after this season. No other reason he would "have no interest" in a better job in a better conference. Heels are having one heckuva season, but it's just one. Need many many more to be classified as a football school like Tennessee. Just ask NC State and Chuck Amato. They had 1-2 seasons as good as UNC's this year, and look at their program now. Don't think anyone is calling NC State a football school. Tarheel fans - enjoy it, but keep it in perspective. Don't expect too much, too quickly. Just savor the wins, and any exceptional seasons like this. They won't come too often.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6039124955271190898.post-4152528774723801162008-11-12T14:05:00.000-05:002008-11-12T14:05:00.000-05:00I understan all the toothless 'Bubbas" in Tennesse...I understan all the toothless 'Bubbas" in Tennessee would like to steal our coach.
