It has been something alot of people are talking about, personally I could care less but it was something that shouldn't have been done. Roy Williams has said it over and over again, infact 3 or 4 times this year, fans aren't the ones playing on the court. Ignorant statement IMO considering fans and not just alumni give big money to the university for him to fly all over the country recruiting. Also, I would say almost 70 percent of the Mcdonald All-Amercicans that come to North Carolina say how they always grew up being a Carolina fan. This year is no different, Larry Drew and Ed Davis both said it. The big thing that strikes a nerve and it was the same thing with Dean Smith, is his substitution patterns in the tournament. Go back to the 80's and early 90's with Dean and look at the players they had and were they lost in the Ncaa tourney. I think it was 84 or 85 that they had 6 future NBA players with long careers and lost in the sweet sixteen. Almost the same in 87 or 88.Kinda makes a person wonder if Dean Smith was more of a great recruiter then a great coach. The 94-95 team had Rasheed Wallace and Jerry Stackhouse coming of the bench and lost in the sweet sixteen to friggen Boston College. Roy Williams has the same pattern even at Kansas. Even if everyone comes back next year and they add 3 Mcdonald All-Americans he'll find a way to screw it up with his substitoin patterns. Srry for the long post.
