Joseph B. Cheshire V, the Raleigh lawyer representing the tutor in the middle of the academic misconduct allegations, was unhappy with the decision.
“It’s a sad day for the university that they would cave in to obviously orchestrated efforts to destroy their football program,” said Cheshire, a UNC-CH alumnus, a Tar Heel fan and an attorney with inside knowledge about the NCAA investigation. “It makes absolutely no sense that this happened now. There’s no additional information that justifies this firing of Butch Davis now, and if there is something, they ought to say what it is. This makes no legal sense, this makes no common sense, this makes no institutional sense and no sense for the athletic program or the players in that program.”
