Butch has always been reported as their #1 choice as a DC. Recent reports are explaining why he wasn’t brought in earlier as their DC, he’s still getting paid by UNC. If he signs anywhere as a coach, he looses that money. This assistant role allows him to double dip.

Butch and Schiano have produced NFL caliber players while coaching in college. I no doubts they can’t improve and mold the young men playing for the Bucs into better football players.

The guys who got fired from their head coaching jobs typically, sorry Raheem, got those positions because they were great assistants.

None of this matters though unless the Glazer’s break out the checkbook and get more than a shiny new punter!

Our owners became too excieted about the other “football” and became the second coming of the Hugh Culverhouse era.

But here’s to hoping!!!

As long as he’s not in charge of personnel, Davis is a great game day coach. He actually lead the [i]Browns[/i] to the playoffs

you have it backwards. unc was just above average under butch, and the guy has never beat NC STATE!!! and just in case some of yall forgot that we landed on the moon, about 10 unc players a year are drafted in the first, second, and third rounds.

great game day coach, though….right

We have a DC unit of sorts , now we need an OC and get the Glazers to keep the promise to spend in free agency. If they are serious about making the Bucs winners again it has to be done in free agency.

Schiano will bring together a respected staff….then it’s his job to LEAD them. This is what he does have the capability of doing. As Derrick Brooks said, most of Dungys first staff were unknowns and now most are Very high up in the NFL ! calm down folks, if you happen to like the Bucs.

Took long enough and I’m a little surprised he’s not the DC, but a great defensive mind like Davis is valuable regardless of his title. I would assume they’ll bring in a successful college guy as the actual DC, and Davis’ main role will be to teach him to adjust to the NFL.

I don’t know how he will do in the pros but he is a good coach.

For the Buccaneers this is a solid hire. Nobody is letting their assistants talk to the Buccaneers so Schiano is being handicapped right from the get go. Thats why it isn’t such a good idea to wait too long to hire a coach.

Good to know that the Bucs have a succession plan. Davis will be the interim head coach when Schiano gets fired.

I agree this guy wil probably stab you in the back b/c Schiano used to report to him.
