Roy Williams had a classic response to a question after UNC's awful loss to Marquette

0 2

Roy Williams has always been known for giving hilariously blunt and honest answers in his press conferences after games. That’s just classic Roy Williams.

He gave us another one of those moments on Wednesday after North Carolina’s 83-70 loss to Marquette. A reporter asked Williams about fans who questioned UNC scheduling Marquette in hindsight. They scheduled Marquette last week after searching for opponents to play because of COVID-19 cancellations.

The Golden Eagles are only 10-12, but they have big wins against Wisconsin and Creighton this season and have shown they’re capable of beating better teams. On top of that, it’s a nonconference game. So there really wasn’t much upside to UNC playing or potentially beating the Golden Eagles — especially since they’re a bubble team. Still, they were on the schedule.

And when Williams was asked about it, he went off.

“Well if I’d known we were going to lose, God almighty, I wouldn’t have scheduled the game. Come on. You can’t operate in damn hindsight. God almighty. If you told me we were going to lose? Yeah, we wouldn’t have played the game. If you told me we were going to beat the Lakers I would’ve scheduled them. Carolina fans, they’re not that dumb. If they are I’ve got no answer.” 

My goodness. Someone isn’t happy.

The question is still valid. This was a weird game to schedule, regardless. Williams is also right, though. Hindsight is always 20/20. As weird as this was, surely, UNC expected to win. They just didn’t.

Either way, this was a classic Williams response.
