Jason,
In all seriousness, Roy Williams was a truly great coach who absolutely deserves his HOF status. The academic cheating scandal was not really his fault, although he benefited from it. I will always hate him for his role in the Barnes recruiting issue, but I have nothing but respect for his coaching acumen. I truly hope that Roy enjoys his well deserved retirement.

I never thought Williams was that great of a coach. It seemed that coach K would often out coach him late in games even if Carolina had slightly better talent. And Duke's players seemed more comfortable late in those rivalry games.

Roy was not a great in-game coach in terms of making adjustments. But, he was an amazing coach in terms of improving his talent over time by stressing fundamentals and getting his players to play his system. Yes, Coach K did routinely outcoach Roy in games because K always coaches to the moment as opposed to a system. So, K would exploit weaknesses on UNC whereas Roy would rely on his system to overwhelm teams. To his credit, it is a really effective system akin to the old D'Antoni 7 seconds or less system of beating opponents down the floor and using superior size to crush opponents on the glass. It does need a really good point guard to work properly though.

It turns out while Miller really liked Donovan and Gainesville, and he was not the usual jock type, he meet a University of Florida coed during one of his visits who later became his wife. 
Williams showed his ass back then and as everybody knows I never forget and seldom forgive. |

Bill, I am fully with you on Roy the person. He is not someone who can be trusted. I just cannot deny that he was a really good coach.
