A few snippets from the article:

All of it is taking its toll on Williams, who has literally been brought to tears by North Carolina’s recent struggles.

Fucking christ, Roy, suck it up. You've got one of the best gigs in America.

He said it’s becoming more and more difficult to sign Top 20-caliber players when there is already so much talent on one team.

Umm, but your current team IS top 20 caliber. And you've already got four 5-stars in your future classes.

“We got Tyler Hansbrough in 2006 when he thought Sean May and Marvin Williams would be back,” Williams said. “Luckily, that didn’t bother him. But those kinds of situations are rare.

“We’re going to take hits sometimes. In this case we didn’t get a couple of players that we wanted because we had Tyler and Danny Green and Wayne Ellington and Ty Lawson. The [recruits] were like, ‘I don’t want to come in and be a backup to those guys for two or three years.’

“People are always going to criticize and nitpick at things that they don’t understand. The bottom line is that I’ve got to coach who we have. If I make a great decision in recruiting or a bad decision in recruiting, I’ve still got to coach them.”

Gee, so essentially it's hard to win when you don't have 5 McD's All-Americans in your starting lineup?

Sin,

99% of college coaches

You mean, like, you actually have to coach and motivate and lead and stuff?

Even then, last I checked, he's still got Ginyard, Thompson, and Davis. And a whole bunch of young 4 stars.

Cry me a fucking river, Roy Boy. Sorry, but the "woe is me" card doesn't really work at North Carolina in regards to talent. Let me get this straight - he's complaining about the ability to recruit effectively...because he had too much talent on his roster? BWAHAHAH! That's a new one.

Oh, gawd, Missouri Valley coaches' hearts are breaking for you, Coach. And which is it - is the cupboard bare or are you sucking it up? Quit talking out of both sides of your mouth. Well, at least he did admit in one instance this season's on him. Even if SCS can't see that.

What a gaping douche.

Roy is actually having to coach for probably the first time in his career and he's failing miserably. This year he can't use the "I've got 5 guys better than any 1 of your guys, good luck stopping us" strategery.

Roy sucks at Craps too. Not that I even know how to play Craps but I have seen him lose pretty big both times I saw him play at our local casino.

Wait, what? Where did I come in on this issue? I said he had talent and it was young. If anything what I previously posted agreed with you on his ability to motivate and put together a team with chemistry.

I particularly like the little shot Boeheim took at UNC over the weekend:

That's because everyone looked at this Orange team on paper in October and yawned. They saw gaping holes in scoring, rebounding and assists from the 2008-09 team and wondered who was going to fill them. That's why the media picked Syracuse to finish sixth in the Big East.

"When you lose your three leading scorers, low preseason rankings are automatic pretty much," Boeheim said. "But they don't do that with North Carolina."

That zinger to the stumbling giant on Tobacco Road was delivered with the usual Boeheim deadpan, right fist still propping up his owlish head. It was a completely accurate zinger: The Tar Heels have turned out to be every bit as overrated as the Orange were underrated.

Duke has no excuses this year to not dominate the Heels this year.

No sympathy for Roy...he's had NBA talent on his squad for years, I don't know what he's crying about.
