The national media gets a couple of columns out of the Bunting exodus. Stewart Mandel at SI hops on the Butch Davis bandwagon while Dennis Dodd grants that UNC doesn't have to suck. It's disconcerting that both writers throw in the caveat that Dick Baddour could easily screw this up.
Anyway, since everyone else is tossing out coaching ideas, and I have this little voting feature I haven't been using, I may as well pitch this to the vast Carolina March readership: Who would you hire for the Tar Heel job? Fancy little unreliable poll thing is on the right sidebar.
