INCREDIBLE INCREDIBLE INCREDIBLE Legacy leaving NC! He took NC on some amazing trips after the late great Dean Smith. Hope he is even more successful in his next chapter. Thanks Coach!

[@randallmadison9910]

Those great teams at Kansas that came so so close to winning it all. Then got over the hump at UNC. So many Final Fours and deep runs in a single elimination tournament at two schools. Incredible.

[@delonteduvall6915]

He better get the opportunity to recommend who our new head coach will be. Thanks for everything coach we love you so much

[@MrMomoneyz]

Thx for all you did for the game. You will be missed coach.

[@pabloramos420]

Enjoy he rest of your life Williams !!!

[@gabrieltoledo3926]

Will be missed one of greatest coach's to coach college basketball

[@jacksonpayne5104]

As a unc fan I'm absolutely heartbroken by this. I thought he had a few more years of coaching in him. Regardless of that what an amazing coaching career. Enjoy retirement good sir

[@scottworley1479]

Oh no you didn't. He saw all your fire Roy posts. Thought you'd be happy

[@jacksonpayne5104]

@@scottworley1479 lmao 🤣

[@scottworley1479]

@@jacksonpayne5104 I felt the same way at times though, just from frustration. Kinda stinks now though. Not sure who they're going to hire. Who do you think? I kinda like Wes Miller out of uncg. I know he's young but I think he could be very successful. He's the same age Dean Smith was when he was hired on at UNC

[@shawnd.dawkins006]

Legendary coach

[@MinePlay512]

This is very heartbreaking for college basketball. Roy Williams is a coaching legend in basketball and UNC had a lot of great players with him. It's hard to say who will replace him.

[@kennysmith1925]

If it sounds like a cliche, it is a cliche. That's how cliche's work. Enjoy your retirement coach Roy, well deserved.

[@scottworley1479]

So who's gonna be the next coach Kenny? I know you know

[@heyitsbroski]

What a wonderful career. Enjoy the rest of your days coach.

[@kaos45]

UK fan here. I hate Calipari, but I love how Roy went out. Said it like a man, didn’t beat the bush.

[@scottworley1479]

Not me, I'd rather he went out on top like he coached

[@scottworley1479]

Gotta love Jay Bilas, A dookie at heart But always fair and unbiased as a college basketball analyst. I respect him for that.

[@larrywillhite5566]

Well I Miss Roy Williams he’s been a good coach real nice man competitive

[@nat_hayes]

Blue Devil fan here born and raised, but gotta love me some roy, for now Tobacco Road will be a bit sad, but that's only a moment such as this. Good luck Roy, in all things to come.

[@ivanlowjones]

Liar.

[@jeremybottoms6722]

Thank you, from a UNC grad!

[@scottworley1479]

I'm sure dookies are breathing a sigh of relief. Thanks none the less, it hurts

[@cuse445]

Will miss you coach, A Legend- respect from The Cuse, Now who's gonna play golf with Coach K and JB??

[@juandoe7802]

This one hurts! I have no idea who even attempts to replace this great coach. I just hope the existing team stays and the incoming recruits don't decommit...

[@jenniferwise8515]

Too late. Many have entered the transfer portal.

[@scottworley1479]

He only had 2 players coming in so far next year.

[@sheilacrabtree5993]

Daggumit Roy! i wish you well.😗😭

[@jacoballen4189]

I’m hurt and I’m sad. But I wish coach nothing but the best. He went out sweeping Duke. LETS GO HEELS!!!!!

[@scottworley1479]

Good point thanks

[@DanO12345]

Coach will be missed. Great coach and forever a Tarheel!

[@ethansmith7]

I wish he could’ve stayed just for one more year. Not how I imagined my senior year at UNC going

[@leonellangston2009]

Imagine once Coach K retires..... Or Auriemma in Women's NCAAB....

[@ivanlowjones]

No one cares about Geno Auriemma compared to Roy Williams.

[@johncramer1783]

Facts

[@stephenboykin4958]

The difference is Coach K is all about Coach K. Roy Williams is all about the players. Big difference. program while Duke is nothing but a coach. Once Kaiti retires Duke’s gonna be straight trash

[@scottworley1479]

I can't wait for K to retire

[@jvamerica1703]

Good luck Hubert Davis

[@thedoo777]

As a Kansas fan Roy is a great coach And one of the best human beings I ever met! he was paying his bill and my ex-girlfriend and I got invited over to his table! we talked about our grades And future I was sure he was interested in me and my ex-girlfriend. We did not talk basketball! Roy had tthe epidemy of class! Is greatness on-and-off the court will be missed

[@bconni2]

RW is so good he won 3 national titles with players that never really panned out in the NBA. Ty Lawson and Raymond Felton were pretty much the only guys coming out of those championship teams who ended up having decent NBA careers.

[@stephenboykin4958]

Ty Lawson is a disaster. Danny Green was the best pro from all those teams which is crazy to think about

[@scottworley1479]

Whaaat? Go look again

[@bconni2]

@@scottworley1479 so the player who's had the best pro career out of 3 national title teams coached by RW, was Danny Green..? yeah, so that proves my point.

[@scottworley1479]

@@bconni2 compared to who? What's a successful NBA career? I can name alot of roys players that went into the NBA and played for years and made millions.

[@nas_hbk6192]

Niceee

[@richhart2583]

Somebody said James Harden look like Lamont Sanford

[@richardpauly1635]

He was a great coach and had great players Micheal Jordan probably the best .

[@olsalt3004]

Jay Wright to take over

[@davidloman7474]

Roy's one of the top 2 or 3 coaches of all time and college basketball is losing a special person. We were lucky to have him in Chapel Hill as long as we did. Thanks Coach and good luck!
