hey my name is kevin and i am a diehardt unc fan, first id like to say that the game with kansas was just plain out horrible, i think roy needs to do a much better job getting us ready for big time games, we didnt have any shot against kansas from the tip to the end, and im saying this on behalf of all unc fans, im really really mad with this team right now, they played so good all year and then they get to san antonio and let their fans down and put us thru misery,roy needs to make them stay on the court all summer long, so that way it will get them mad and make them approach big time games much harder!!!!!!!!!!!
Ok kevin, a few things...

KANSAS is losing most of the starting team, UNC is not. Next year could be a good year for UNC. Lets hope KANSAS & UNC meet again. Isn't it fun having Roy all messed up when you are playing? I remember a final four in 2003 and your university and classless dean smith didn't mind screwing with the KANSAS coach. (Continued…)

Roy and the Boys, we love you all period. We enjoyed a great season and a great comeback....but too many games at least 3 started just like Kansas. They are not hitting the floor running. (Continued…)
