Roy Williams retires

All good things... They should hire Mike Tomlin to replace him!

Who do you think they'll get? UNC is clearly a great job for college bball, so it should attract some big names.

I HAVE nO IDEA.

Feels premature to hire Wes Miller.

I want to know why he's retiring.

My guesses would be:
1. Health
2. The grind of recruiting
3. Doesn't like what the game is becoming thanks to the NBA

UNC potential candidates.
I like to see Wright, Few, and Drew's names. They are stronger than the family candidates, imho. Please, God, don't get Bennett. I would die watching that offense.

He says he just isn't as sharp and good of a coach as he used to be.

Kansas locks up Bill Self for life, after having their previous coach poached by UNC.

That's actually pretty smart on their part.

Why don't you stay away from Holtman!? Although, if you do poach him, I hope OSU parks a Brinks truck in front of Few's house.

Holtman's probably my 3rd choice after Wright and Few, though. The UNC family hasn't done great.

This guy had two options on how to deal with his name. I wonder which way he went?

UNC goes family. https://www.newsobserver.com/sports/col ... 64439.html

Hubert Davis. Cannot say I'm excited, but we'll see.

He'll probably be fine. He played under Smith and I assume would still be able to call Williams for advice.

all I know is that every program without a black head coach is racist.

That's a given.

Since Indiana ran the table in 76(?) every undefeated team that made the title game has lost there.

To be fair, the Zags play a shitty regular season.

They still crushed everyone in their way up until the final two games of the tournament.

They're also the favorites to win it all next year.

Over-rated, barely beat an 11 seed in OT on a lucky shot. And had the easiest matchups

To be fair, that 11 seed had already beaten another #1...
