Retro Roy Williams

I came across this link posted on Inside Carolina. It is Roy Williams’ introductory press conference from when he was hired at Kansas in 1988.

Roy has certainly gotten more polished and practiced at speaking in front of reporters. Clearly he looks a tad uncomfortable in this video but that [...]

What Roy MEANT To Say Was…

Let’s see: UNC won a big home game Tuesday night, defeating a game Clemson squad, making key lineup changes, extending a NCAA-record winning streak, and probably most important putting Sunday night’s debacle at Georgia Tech behind them and keeping Carolina near the top of the ACC standings. So what’s the big story still two days [...]

Ten Years Ago Today…

In the seminal moments of UNC athletics, where do you place June 30,2000?

Not ringing a bell, you say? It was only the date of the most cataclysmic shift in Tar Heel sports in the modern era – the day Bill Guthridge retired as UNC basketball coach. Who could realize at the time the depths – [...]

Roy Williams’ Summer Press Conference Reveals Very Little

And when I saw on Twitter this morning that Roy Williams summer press conference would be today I thought for sure I would have some meat for THF readers. Not so much. And no scrilla references!

In Lieu of Balcony Jumping I Give You…

…Roy Williams sunbathing in Arizona? Um….okay.

This comes via Deadspin who says it was taken by a UNC fan at some resort in Arizona. You notice the Carolina blue towels at this resort. Darn straight. I am betting Roy asks about that sort of thing before he makes reservations. If [...]

Obligatory Roy Fist Pumps Redick Air Ball Video

Wait..that was it? They way I heard this talked about, it sounded as though Roy stood up and gave a solid fist pump. That looked like he was adjusting his sleeve. Something tells me people are making more of that than it was which would not be unusual where Roy Williams is [...]

Roy: Drew & Strickland Should Be More Like…Jerrod Haase?

Hey, the good news there is Jerrod Haase is on the staff so he can teach Larry Drew and Dexter Strickland all they need to know. More radio show shenanigans from Roy Williams:

“We’ve got to do a better job guarding the ball on the perimeter. I put some pressure on two kids today, and [...]

One Final Word On Fan Removal-Gate[UPDATED]

Update: Roy responded to the controversy during his call-in radio show last night. His defense? He did it for the parents who he thought should not have to listen to that sort of thing right behind them at a home game. And he ain’t apologizing even if he is wrong, which he implies he might [...]

Roy Has Presbyterian Fan Tossed From The Game

Didn’t see that one coming did you?

There are a lot of questions about this one. WRAL has video of the incident here. The gist of the story is a Presbyterian fan was seated about 20 rows up from the UNC bench and screamed “Deon, miss it” or something to that effect while Deon Thompson [...]
