Ol’ Roy and I don’t mean dog food

Roy Williams had a Presbyterian fan thrown out of a game Saturday night during a close 103-64 victory over Presbyterian. Apparently the little gym was real quiet when the Presbyterian fan yelled something like “You’re gonna miss it, Deon” while Deon Thompson was shooting free throws. Roy the media-titled guru of college basketball took offense and had the fan escorted out of the mosh pit thats named The Dean Smith Center.

Now I’m just guessing but if ol’ Roy the guru of basketball coaching had this fan thrown out for yelling while his player was shooting free throws then he might have just violated this fans civil rights of free speech and equal representation in the house that Dean built.

I’m hoping that this fan who as far as I can tell so far did nothing that the NC fans weren’t doing takes this to court where it might result in nothing or it could if taken to the end result in fans not being allowed to yell during free throws or wave things or behave like a fan does.

Way to go ol’ Roy you might have opened up a bag of dog food you cant finish. Its going to be fun to see how the media spins this or if they even bother.

The latest update has Yahoo calling ol’ Roy out on it.
