Roy, Are there still some strong feelings for Kansas?
Question to Roy from this article: http://northcarolina.scout.com/2/742213.htmlAre there still some strong feelings for Kansas?
"I gave some school, some basketball programs, some state, whatever you want to call it, and especially the players, 15 years of my heart, body and soul. So I'm never going to lose that. Some of the greatest memories in my life were at Kansas. I'm never going to lose that. I'm never going to lose their appreciation for basketball, their passion for basketball. "I'll always appreciate that and love that. Each and every year it gets different because the players that I left there are gone. We recruited Jeremy, but everybody else is gone. And we knew Darnell, he used to come up to games. We knew Darrell used to come up for games. But this is Bill's team. This is the University of Kansas's team without Roy Williams. "I can put it to you this way: In my summer camp we have a lot of little kids running around and they're instructed on the first day they can wear North Carolina stuff or they can wear Kansas stuff, but they can't wear anybody else's stuff. "And that's the way I'm always going to be. I'm going to be always be a huge Kansas fan. There were some things said or done that hurt at first, but time has a way of healing things and I am hopeful it will heal with some people that still may have some bad feelings. "But the good news is it's a wonderful Kansas team playing a wonderful North Carolina team on college basketball's biggest stage. And I wish it would be Monday night as opposed to Saturday." I think I hate UNC a little bit less after reading that. He lets the little kids wear UNC and Kansas gear... that is cool. |

after all Roy did for KU, coming in after the cloud of scandal enveloped the university, bringing them back to respectability and everything, i dont understand why most ku fans are like 'piss on him'. is no one who works for the uni ever allowed to work anyplace else again?

That is something with which I agree.

Im not mad at Roy. I would much rather have Self, he is the better recruiter and is younger. Hopefully the NBA or OSU won't snatch him away and he can spend 20-30 years at KU.

I'm cheering for the Gheyhawks but if Deputy Dog punks KU's best team in a decade I will enjoy the glorious meltdown of it all. "YES, YES, your tears of pain will be delicious" Do you hear me Skip, Ari? Either way, I WIN!!

IMO, all the pressure will be on Roy.

Heh. You know I was thinking... this is sort of an empty statement by Roy. What kid IN North Carolina... going to a NORTH CAROLINA bball camp would want to wear anything other than UNC shit? I doubt many, if any, wear KU shit.
Oh man, this game is getting to me. |
