Butch Davis is out as the head coach of the Cleveland Browns.

Browns president John Collins said Tuesday morning that Davis had resigned after a Monday night meeting with club officials. But a source close to Davis told ESPN's Chris Mortensen that Davis was fired.

There has been no decision on a replacement, but Mortensen is reporting that team owner Randy Lerner intends to meet with a group of Browns players to discuss who will be selected as the interim coach. Offensive coordinator Terry Robiskie and defensive coordinator Dave Campo are the leading candidates to take over as the interim coach for the rest of the season.

Larry Coker and The University of Miami collectively laugh it up.

Good try Butch, back to the college ranks you go.

He is quite a terrible coach. Best thing he could've done.

He's a very good recruiter though. Look at what he did with UM in the mid 90's. Coker had early success because of Davis' recruiting. I wish he'd just go back to UM and recruit!
