MIAMI (AP) – Randy Shannon and Butch Davis are close enough that when North Carolina’s football program began reeling a few weeks ago during an NCAA investigation, the Miami coach sent his counterpart with the Tar Heels a note offering support.
Odd, since Davis hasn’t needed much help – at least when trying to beat Miami, anyway.
North Carolina is 3-0 against the 25th-ranked Hurricanes since Davis and Shannon started in their current jobs, and the teams will meet up again in South Florida on Saturday night in a crucial Atlantic Coast Conference game for both clubs.
The winner will be no worse than one loss off the lead in the ACC’s Coastal Division, while the loser will see its league title hopes in big trouble.
