Championships & wins staying you might as well face it. Players had enough credit hours in other classes to be able to play. They may take a scolly or 2 if that. It was a unc problem school problem more than a ncaa problem. If the players had enough credit hours in other classes what ncaa violation did they break'?? So titles were earned and staying

You can't classify something as earned when 80% of the team shouldn't have been eligible.....pretty sure that's the exact opposite of earned, Carolina way unfortunately should be renamed cheaters way lol.

Central dad------ Roy now 5-1 vs pitino------ pitino vs unc =0-6 all time. So Mark him and Izzo off your list. With that said both are great coaches but Roy is also. That makes. Unc =12-4. 4-4 vs top #25 ranked teams at the time or teams ranked in sometime in season. Butler was as high as #15 once, iowa was top 25 to start season, Kentucky#1, ul#5, Norte dame#13. Ohio state#12, 10-3 Davidson team. Florida #18, ucla#22 at time. So no easy schedule to it.

Unc earned there titles, they count.Your mad cause k-rat and dook are still behind unc in championships no matter how you cut it. Unc got more=fact= ncaa record book. They have not proved Roy knew about classes as you say---just hear say by a former nba bust player who known to lie, and wouldn't stand behind what he said to a federal investigator. Again unc didn't cheat on court but just classroom. Because players had enough credit hours in other classes to be able to play. But guess dook being behind unc in titles any excuse works to help a dook fan sleep at night.

Lol all those combined plus majority of them are untrue and the very least not proven. But let's just say they are it doesn't equal 1 percent of the unc scandal lol the Carolina way what a joke

Every year Roy won a national title, he had 4 first round players, that's not coaching... he'll I could win a title with a NBA team... Roy can win a national title when his team is Miles better than everyone else. He due to his school cheat to win "Carolina way" mentality may never happen again. Plus they are going to take a few titles sooooo. O ya and wins.

Yea those 11 coachest wasn't involved in the largest scandal in ncaa history....Roy is lol

Lol, you say I know nothing. You are really clueless ,no Ryan =0 titles, Tom izzo= 1 title Roy has beat both head to head every time I believe. Billy Donovan=2 titles which Roy has and beat Billy team this year, smart=1 final four no titles,lol Tony Bennett=0 titles ,0 final fours, Greg Marshall l= 1-0 final fours not sure. Self and coach cal 1 title each after having top classes last 5-6years. But I'll give you there as good as Roy or maybe better right now. Same with coach k with 4 titles, but in the Roy era Roy record better than coach k last 10-11 years. Plus coach k has lost 2 out3 year's in 1st rd in tournament with the #1 player in class both years.So that great coaching was really showing up then, or how he quit his team 94-95 season blame ing a back problem that didn't get fixed till after season and was still going on recruiting trips . So yea great coach there.

I absolutely agree with Sporting Guy, you have no clue what you are watching, none whatsoever.

In no particular order here are coaches coaching right now who are better than Roy Williams.

1. Tom Izzo

2. Bill Self

3. Billy Donovan

4. Mike Krzyzewski

5. John Calipari

6. Tony Bennett

7. Rick Pitino

8. Bo Ryan

9. Shaka Smart

10 Gregg Marshall

11 Fred Hoiberg

I'll stop at 11 because we are getting near Roy Williams area now.

I got no problem with Roy but he has issues, the biggest is he tries to run the same offense no matter what talent his teams possesses.

Kryzewski is a master at changing from year to year based on the talent he has on hand. He doesn't recruit players to fit his system, he recruits the best players, and then decides what system fits them. That's one sign of a great coach.

Williams forces his players no matter their talent to run his system, and it kills him sometimes.

Central dad-----question? You said Roy would be in 2nd 10 coaches list. Name the 10 coaches you'd put before him coaching right now

unc greatest ever

Posted 8:25 pm, 01/08/2015

Box score stats= Devin thomas=24 points -1 turnover-1block-4 steals - 3 ast. 5 rebounds. Jahlil okafor= 12 points- 5 turnovers- 1 block-0 steals-0 ast. 11 rebounds. So tell me were he is unstoppable again? Again good player, will be very good player, but best last 20years not hardly. Look at a team like unc with hicks, Meeks, Brice Johnson. 3-4 big body players that are not superstars but are good players vs the team's dook played so far. Then add a team like Kentucky, that's when we'll see how he does.believe he will have good game vs unc. But think our bigs have good game vs him and dook

Yes I can read, that's why I have to keep responding.

You keep saying "Oakfor will be a very good player'.

Buddy, Oakfor is already a great player! Will probably be National Player of the Year good.

Yes Roy Is good, but not a great coach. He's somewhere near the top of the second 10 best. He is above average when he has a center and pg that is above average.

I like Meeks a lot, but he won't do crap defensively vs Oakfor unless we throw the house at him like WF did, and he still had a double double last night.

Can't you read? I said okafor will be a very good player, but the teams dook played so far haven't been top teams. Vs. Meeks I believe Meeks will hold his own, not saying he will outplay okafor but Meeks will have good game. Same thing was said about Parker last season how far did they go? Recruiting wise scandal or not it is what it is. I'm going to be a tar heels fan, talking about Roy can't coach without talent, whatabout coach k 2out of 3 years had #1 player in class and went out 1st rd. Coach cal had #1 classes for how many seasons now? 1 title and runnerup few final fours. But all that talent and 1 title. With that said I think coach k and coach cal are great coaches, but can't understand the hate people throw at Roy.

What is it you don't understand?

I said the scandal has hurt our recruiting. No players singed in over 18 months other than two with family ties, one of them will contribute as much as Jackie Simmons, the other pretty good.

Hate to say it, but If Okafor hasn't show you much then no wonder everyone argues with you here, you have no clue what you are looking at.

Okafor has the best footwork coming into a college program in probably at least 20 years. Leading the nation in FG%? The dude never misses it seems.

His defense needs work, but for the first time in his life he's actually having to play defense, with those feet, it will improve rapidly.

He will be the national teams starting center in 2022 and 2026 at the Olympics, and maybe 2030. He will probably be on the team in 2018.

I'd love to have him at UNC with Meeks as the best backup in the country, except maybe at Kentucky.

Seen him play, Devon. Thomas did very well vs okafor. Again yes he will be a very good player, but the better the team's and players the more it's not going to be so easy. To tell truth Justin winslow for dook has impressed me more than okafor to this point in season. Back to unc--- alot of kids are waiting to spring or late signing period before choosing anymore. Roy can recruit the kids and they still choose to go elsewhere, he can't make them come.don't understand what your getting at. Trying to get top players is all he can do, if they come great if not do best with what he's got. I'm a unc fan win or lose, but it's a lot better when there winning.
