    <font face="tahoma,arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="3">I gotta go with Butch Davis. I'm an ACC guy and the 'Heels have been pretty bad lately. Bunting was a good guy and a great motivator, I don't think he was much of a teacher of the game though. </font></p>

    <font face="Tahoma" size="3">If you have to have an immediate impact the ACC is the place to do it.</font></p>

    Kragthorpe is stepping into a nice situation. </p>

    I'm upset that Minny is running a spread passing attack now under Brewster.</p>

    I don't know about this yr, but Saban and Davis for the future. Both are already recruiting very well.</p>

    The problem for him though is that he has very little room to improve the team from last season.

    Yeah. I have to imagine the only goal down there for them is not only to defend their Big East title but win the National Championship. Which means alot of pressure.

    </div>They are running a spread offense, but by no means are they going to abandon the run. Don't think they'll be running an offense like Texas Tech. </p>

    I didn't say they are abandoning the run, but they are using a 4 wr base set, what's that say?

    Kragthorpe by fay. As for Erikson, I am not sure what to make of him at ASU. They have lots of talent, but have never been consistent when they need to be and I cant see them finishing higher than 3rd or 4th this year.

    Nobody on that list is a better coach than Nick Saban. Alabama has talent and is coming off a bad year. Saban should be able to make an immediate impact.

    <font size="2">As much as I hate to say it Nick Saban will probably do really well at Alabama. I'm really pulling for Butch Davis to turn UNC into a football school.</font>
