In 2005, I entered the board like a complete ******* and boasted about the title. Several people called me out with realistic complaints and I apologized. Since then, I haven't started a single conversation about UNC. I've responded when others have brought stuff up, but I haven't initiated UNC discussion, and that has been intentional.

Fair enough. I'll let this die, but know if it gets brought up i'll respond :)

Serious question Bricks, does it not drive you bat $hit crazy when another team goes on a 19-0 run and Roy just stands there with his hands in his pocket refusing to call a timeout?

No, it really doesn't. His track record speaks for itself. Roy is coaching for March. He plays his bench, and he lets his players figure things out. Carolina ended the first half 7-0 run and came out of a 15 minute break before going on a 15-7 run. Are there times when he's stubborn? Yes! But I think Roy's coaching is vastly underrated.

I agree. ESPECIALLY when you look at the recruiting done at Duke. Duke is pulling down top 1-3 recruiting classes nearly every year. Coach K is stepping on the court with NBA ready freshman regularly, classes that our touted as "best ever" by talking heads all the time. Then what happens, Carolina (while not playing with mid-major recruited talent, obviously) steps in with a lower recruitment ranking, competes, wins, and wins national championships. Roy may not have his teams ranked in the top 5 every year, but his teams learn and gel together over multiple seasons usually (not nearly as many one and dones as Duke, Kentucky, etc) and then put it together for championship runs. That to me, is better coaching then just going out there because of your fame and NBA contact grabbing the highest touted players, only having them for a year... and flopping with that talent more often than not.
