Daily Tar Heel calls on Davis to be ousted

Add The Daily Tar Heel to the growing number of people saying Butch Davis should not be retained.

The DTH, the independent student paper of the University of North Carolina, called Monday for Davis to be ousted after this season.

"It’s time to prepare to end the Butch Davis era," The DTH said in an editorial. "After this investigation ends, the University will need a fresh start. That should include new leadership and a new head coach — preferably someone who will not be so disengaged as to hurt the University at large again."

Davis continued to defend his tenure at Monday's news conference. 

"I'm sorry that I trusted John Blake,” Davis told reporters.

ESPN reported Sunday that Blake called Alabama's Marcell Dareus over the summer to encourage him to sign with Gary Wichard. Davis said Monday, “You assume that no coaches ever would contact players on other teams."
