*Interim Head Coaches
Includes Playoff Games

Browns new Head Coach Butch Davis.

Davis accepted the head coaching position at Miami in 1995 and rebuilt the Hurricanes program back to college football’s elite status. Davis inherited a Miami program following NCAA sanctions that severely reduced the number of available scholarships during his first three years. Under his six years of guidance, Miami totaled a 51-20 record including a 4-0 bowl record, was nationally ranked five times and captured three Big East titles.

The 2000 Hurricanes ranked 2nd in the nation in scoring (42.6 points per game), 5th in total offense (460.8 yards per game), 5th in scoring defense (15.5 points per game), 8th in passing defense (220.6 yards per game) and capped their season by defeating SEC Champion Florida 37-20 in the 2001 Nokia Sugar Bowl.

Prior to joining the Hurricanes, Davis coached six seasons (1989-94) with the Dallas Cowboys including the final two as the club’s defensive coordinator. Davis helped Dallas post one of the most spectacular turnarounds in sports history as the Cowboys went from a 1-15 season in 1989 to consecutive Super Bowl championships in 1992 and 1993. Davis was defensive line coach in the Cowboys’ 52-17 win over Buffalo in Super Bowl XXVII and served as defensive coordinator in the Cowboys’ 30-13 win over Buffalo in Super Bowl XXVIII. As defensive line coach in 1992, Davis helped the Cowboys rank 1st in the NFL in rushing (77.8 yards per game). Davis’ 1993 defensive squad helped the Cowboys capture their second consecutive Super Bowl, set a club record by allowing just 21 total touchdowns in 16 games and allowed one offensive touchdown or less in 12 of 16 games.

He was also defensive coordinator during Barry Switzer’s first season as head coach and helped Dallas reach the NFC Championship Game where eventual Super Bowl champion San Francisco denied their bid for a three-peat. Davis’ 1994 Cowboys’ defense ranked 1st in the NFL in total defense (269.6 yards per game), 1st in pass defense (172.0 yards per game), 3rd in scoring defense (15.5 points per game), 10th in rushing defense (97.6 yards per game) and had three Pro Bowl starters: defensive end Charles Haley, defensive tackle Leon Lett and defensive back Darren Woodson. The three defensive starters were the most for the Cowboys since 1983.

Davis accepted the head coaching position at Miami in 1995 and helped the Hurricanes earn a share of the Big East Conference Championship by winning seven straight games to close the season. Davis again led Miami to a share of the Big East title in 1996 and catapulted the Hurricanes to a top 20 ranking and their first bowl victory in five years with a 31-21 win over Virginia in the Carquest Bowl. He led Miami to a 46-23 win over N.C. State in the 1998 Micron PC Bowl and capped the 1999 season with a 28-13 victory over Georgia Tech in the Toyota Gator Bowl, the Hurricanes first New Year’s Day bowl game under Davis. Miami surpassed the national graduation rate for its football players every year under Davis while receiving recognition from the American Football Coaches Association for exceeding a 70% graduation rate among its football student athletes.

Davis spent five seasons as the defensive line coach for the University of Miami from 1984-88 and helped guide the Hurricanes to the 1987 National Championship. During his first stint at Miami, Davis coached a defensive line corps that sent 15 linemen to the NFL including All-Americans Bill Hawkins, Cortez Kennedy, Russell Maryland, Daniel Stubbs and the late Jerome Brown. Davis’ line was a key part of the Miami defense that finished second in the nation in both scoring defense (9.7 points per game) and total defense (242.0 yards per game) in 1988. The 1986 Hurricanes set a school record with 49 sacks, broke the mark with 50 in 1988, and held opposing rushers to fewer that 2.3 yards per carry in 1987 and 1988.

Davis entered the collegiate coaching ranks on the offensive side of the ball as an assistant on Jimmy Johnson’s Oklahoma State teams from 1979-83. At Oklahoma State, Davis coached receivers and tight ends while also serving as recruiting coordinator. Prior to joining Oklahoma State, Davis was head coach at Rogers High School in Tulsa, Okla., in 1978 after spending time as an assistant at two high schools in Oklahoma and one in Arkansas where he taught biology, anatomy and physiology. Davis played defensive end for Arkansas under Head Coach Frank Broyles and earned his bachelor’s degree in biology in 1974.

Born in Tahlequah, Okla., on November 17, 1951, Davis and his wife, Tammy, have a son, Andrew, 8.

Pete Garcia, Miami's recruiting coordinator and academic adviser, said that he also would be joining Davis in Cleveland. It is believed Garcia will get an administrative position with the Browns.

Fazio has 34 years of coaching experience and comes to Cleveland after serving one year as linebackers coach for the Washington Redskins. The Redskins ranked 4th in the NFL in total defense (279.6 yards per game) in 2000 after ranking 30th (356.6 yards per game) in 1999 the year before Fazio’s arrival. Fazio was instrumental in the development of rookie linebacker Lavar Arrington.

Banko joins the Browns from the University of Miami, where he was a graduate assistant for the last three seasons. Banko served as graduate assistant at Miami from 1998-2000 and helped the Hurricanes to three consecutive bowl appearances including a 2001 Sugar Bowl victory over Florida and a consensus No. 2 national ranking
