Many KU fans hope for a shot at former coach Roy Williams’ Tar Heels
Posted Mar 30, 2008
What is it about Roy Williams that Kansas fans can’t seem to forgive? Larry Brown left the school on probation, and he’s a legend in Lawrence. Sure, Brown also won a national title, but Williams made KU his home for 15 years, took the Jayhawks to four Final Fours and left a firm foundation that has helped Bill Self win 139 games in five years. Well, it’s pretty simple actually. Nobody likes feeling as if they’ve been lied to by their lover. Carry that resentment around, and you can’t help but want revenge.
