Unfortunately this kind of thing happens in the Big 12 much more often than it should. In all sports, not just basketball. Why can't fans just thank him for all that he has given to the program, then wish him luck in his new endeavors? Why do some fans think that they own a coach, player, etc? Personally, I would be sad to see Kelvin Sampson or Sherri Coale leave Oklahoma, but I would never feel that they wouldn't be welcome back on campus again. And I would certainly want them to attend the banquet so that I would have one more chance to shake their hand and wish them all the best.

It's these same fans who only come to games just to insult the opponents, not to watch the game and cheer for their team. And it's my guess that many of these are the same jerks who hurl insults at the officials. The solution to the problem? Beats the heck out of me! I guess I have to accept the fact that some people are just *ssholes, period. Often it's hard to just ignore them and enjoy the games. It's frustrating to not be able to say anything to them because to do so would risk starting a brawl and that would be even worse. How do you teach good sportsmanship to a neanderthal?

These 'anti-Williams' people claim to love basketball, but somehow 'that just don't compute.'
