He's won at Kansas and UNC. But who couldn't do that ... besides Matt Doherty?

Rank: Sports Legend Sounds like a lot of jealousy which is a good thing. Two national titles since 2005, best winning percentage among active coaches, 6th best winning percentage of all time and fastest in Divison I to 600 wins. I will take that any day.- Posted by DookSuckz
Why is he not coaching team USA? Could it be they wanted a true winner, or maybe some one who would stay for the whole game.Sounds like a lot of jealousy which is a good thing.

Rank: Sports Legend We were sitting inside the Dean Smith Center, and I asked why, after all these years, he still works so hard in recruiting, because he does -- and I think most would back me on this -- still work really hard recruiting. Williams' answer always stuck with me. Basically, he said he still recruits hard because he thinks of himself as a good coach but not as a great coach, and that he never wants to have to find out if he's good enough to win with average players.
I love that answer.
Because I love the philosophy.
What Williams acknowledged is what I've long believed -- that actual coaching is secondary to lots of things in this sport, and that the proper approach is to get the best players you can get and then do the best you can with them. Williams has made a career out of doing exactly that, and if that's what makes him an overrated coach, so be it. My guess is that he'd rather be called an overrated coach than a losing one. Or a title-less one. Or an unemployed one.
