1. HeeHee

That's the truth. I hate basketball, no interest at all and I know that for a fact. It is all everyone is talking about, Roy Williams.

6. I was careful to not make it sound

too threatening. :)

And you guys have no idea. Roy is hated here. And yes, we loved him for years. Then he really screwed us. I can never forget the Final Four when he went job shopping instead of coaching his team. Oh, and we hate Dean Smith too.

4. Screw that Traitor.

UNC had a patsy road to the final game.

Who the did they beat that actually had a decent team?

Answer: Illinois.

I could have taken any decent high school team as far as the final game with the games UNC had to play.

5. Sour grapes.

That's all.

Doesn't look good on you or on Kansas.

No wonder Roy left.

7. He left because

he never intended to stay in the first place. Just needed a place to hang out until his hometown team was ready to hire him. And we were damn good to him too. But now we know all those tears and promises to never leave were lies.

If he cries at the press conference tonight or tomorrow, don't say we didn't warn ya.

11. The only reason he didn't leave the first time

Is because he had a final four team coming back.

Once he rode them as far as he could go, he was happy to help throw Doherty under the bus and head to Chapel Hill.

15. I started a thread on the KS board

seems kind of disrespectful to nice NC fans to bash their coach here.

9. Oh come on, Roy Williams is full of crap

He went from "I just couldn't leave my boys" to "It's always been my dream to coach at my alma mater" within a 2-year span.

10. You all sound like a bunch of 14 year old girls whose boyfriend

jilted them a couple of years ago and they can't stop talking about it.

21. Lighten up, it's just a college basketball game.

Sheesh.

You're about to blow a gasket. Find something important to get upset about.

24. My comments were about Roy Williams

Which were not personal to you, unless you happen to be a member of the Williams family.

Your comments were about me and anyone else who said something about Roy Williams.
