Interesting note from after the game. \u00c2\u00a0I had to photograph the post-game press conference in the football facility (which is amazing for those who have not been lucky enough to go in there). \u00c2\u00a0When I left, I was only only the 2nd floor but had to go to 1st to get out. \u00c2\u00a0I was lost and had no idea how to get to the first floor without taking the elevator. \u00c2\u00a0So I hit the down button and prayed that no one would be on the elevator going doing, lest I feel like a lazy oaf. \u00c2\u00a0I hear the elevator slow down to 2nd, the doors fly open, and no one is there but head UNC football coach Butch Davis himself. \u00c2\u00a0“Crap!” I thought, but he quickly said in a friendly tone “You going down? \u00c2\u00a0Well come on man”. \u00c2\u00a0So whew, embarassment avoided. \u00c2\u00a0In the 10 seconds I was with him in the elevator, plus what I heard of him on the field and in the post-game press conference, I can see why this guy is so well respected. \u00c2\u00a0He’s the kind of coach that players would run through walls for. \u00c2\u00a0They love him, you can tell.<\/p>\n

BTW, I’ve lately had close encounters with all three local football coaches in the last two months. \u00c2\u00a0In February, I was in Duke football coach David Cutcliffe’s office photographing him and the Manning brothers. \u00c2\u00a0Last month, I was at the residence of NC State head football coach Tom O’Brien, photographing him and his family for NC State. \u00c2\u00a0Then this encounter with coach Davis.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
