As a Sixers fan, I'm relieved to hear that Williams took the job, because that means Coach Brown is staying put. But here's what I don't understand. Why would UNC rather have Williams than Brown? Brown said that if Dean asked him, he'd come. But Williams was their first choice? Maybe last time, when things were going well in Carolina, but now they are in turmoil and need to turn it around. That's Coach Brown's specialty.

Larry Brown is 63 yers old. Williams is in his late 40's or early 50's. He'll coach at least another 15 to 20 years. And, I don't know if it weighed into their decision but Brown had short stays at UCLA and Kansas and both schools ended up on probation for things that occurred before he left. Personally, I would rather they go outside the "Carolina family" than hire Brown.

My question is, where if anywhere will Doherty land? Hopefully, he can show what he learned in the past three years and coach at the collegiate level again.

My understanding is that he is moving to Charlotte and will work in television next year before posibly returning to coaching the following year.

A quick question...the newspaper out here talked about Williams being upset and sad about the three HS kids he recruited who signed letters of intent to play for him at Kansas...can those kids back out of those letters of intent now that he has left, or are they locked into Kansas? If they do back out, are there penalties? Sorry, that's two questions...having a hard time counting today!

They have all signed letter of intent. Therefore, they are bound to Kansas, unless they choose an non-D1 school or sit out a year.
I heard the David Padgett's father was very unhappy, since Williams sat in their living room and told them he wasn't going anywhere. But what's one to do? Things happen.
