All that said, the current whining from some UNC fans isn't necessarily
that we lost, it's HOW we lost. And I can understand that. I just
don't understand going off the deep end that Roy can't do it and all
that. Nobody is perfect. But we were *so* bad that night that it's
hard to imagine there's something Roy himself could have done to fix or
prevent it.

That's the point -- there's nothing "Roy" could have done. A quality
coach who gave a s**t about his team and his state could have.

But he obviously is a quality coach, and if he didn't care about North
Carolina I don't think he'd have come here.

This whole debate is silly. There are only a handful of coaches in
the country that might arguably be better at building winning teams
than Roy. Notwithstanding the whole gifts-to-former-players-at-KU
thing, he generally runs a clean program. He's not going to run off
to the NBA and then end up at our biggest out-of-conference rival. He
doesn't throw things.

He does have a way of saying things I wish he wouldn't, but given all
of the above, I'm disinclined to complain too much.
