Roy Wliams retiring at UNC

[Jax_Vol]

I would have Oats sigh the dotted line by 5:00 pm this evening.

The sky is Carolina Blue because N.C. is God's favorite team.

That is an absolutely hilarious top 3 names for what is considered one of the 2 or 3 best jobs in college basketball. It’s something you’d expect to see from an AAC or Big East school, not UNC.

Like I said, staying in the family seems so dumb when you could have just about any coach you want. Talk about uninspiring choices. Stackhouse!?!

 

[miket4god]

I suggest the new UNC coach hire Manti T'eo's girlfriend to be director of academic support/tutoring for the basketball program....

Nah, let Alabubba hire her.

This is why UT fans need to learn to be happy with Barnes and not let perfect be the enemy of good.

Carolina does try to keep b-ball coaching hires within the family, but the pool outside those guys is so much better. Jay Wright, Bennett, Oats and if Billy Donovan or Brad Stevens wanted back in the college game...mercy.

 

[SGMVols]

Donovan and Stevens are NBA guys now. They aren’t going back to college

Brad Stevens has no desire to go back to college.

Billy Donovan got tired of recruiting and is happy in the NBA.

Oats should be their #1 target.

 

[JRVOL11]

Could see Jay Wright. Would really like them to hire nate oats please lol

Jay Wright would be near the top of my list IF he would consider leaving Villanova.

As for Stevens and Donovan, I’m not sure they’d have to put a lot of effort in recruiting to be successful at a high level. It’d be close to Saban level attraction for top players.

[golfballs]

Some of our fans on this site were pining for him as a potential Barnes replacement....just gross.

 

[Tnphil]

I have no doubt....I'd get fed up too.

 

[golfballs]

He’s the head coach. That’s weird. Just got fed up dealing w kids and their drama? Or he was feeling increasingly ineffectual

Can’t imagine Wright leaving. Villanova isn’t quite the program UNC is but it’s still a great program and he seems like such a good fit there.

 

[Thunder Good-Oil]

He’s fed up that he no longer is allowed to cheat while the non-blue bloods would get hammered.

 

[AngryButchJones]

Oh cry for me, Roy lol

 

[golfballs]

He’s fed up that he no longer is allowed to cheat while the non-blue bloods would get hammered.

Frustrated that his players actually have to go to class

 

[Chemvol]

I'd be surprised if they go outside the family. That's just the Carolina way of doing things. But that list of external candidates is so much better.

 

[Volfan1000]

Perhaps they take Self and use Kansas as a stepping ground.

Bill $elf ha$ too much ethic$ to leave Kan$a$ for UNC. $elf only believe$ in changing H$ academic tran$cript$ in$tead of creating fake major$

 

[OrangeVolMan]

The Stackhouse odds are silly. He is 20-37 as a college coach. Has shown nothing at Vandy. There would be a riot if UNC hired him.

Vandy would probably pay UNC to take him tbh

Why is everyone so afraid of Nate freakin oat boats

Because he is a damn good basketball coach who I don’t want in my conference. You really think Oats has already peaked in Year 2? Because this is only the start of his success.

Hard not to be after watching the '20-21 SEC men's basketball season.
