Just ran across this article; Author talks about thinking K is the GOAT, but a bad person. Weird take.
It is a little bit of a bizarre take... much more a message board post written by a Tar Heel fan then a piece of actual journalism. Apparently cursing, considering taking a job in the NBA years ago, and taking one-and-dones makes you a bad person, charity work and devoted family and helping hundreds of young people for years and service to your country notwithstanding.
I mean, look at these lines:
"Dean Smith and Roy Williams retired suddenly and unexpectedly, doing so with a smidgen of fanfare. K has decided on gluttony and will feed his ego for almost an entire year."
So... announcing your retirement suddenly, leaving recruits in the lurch, is a sign of a good person, but announcing it before the season starts, allowing for recruiting and all of that to reflect it... that is the sign of a bad person, full of gluttony and ego?
I'm just curious what the author's Inside Carolina user name is
I go by the general rule that most people are good people. I also go by the rule that most people are flawed. I try not to let my own bias get in the way... I think Dean Smith was a good person, I think John Calipari is a good person, I think Roy Williams is a good person... even if there are aspects of them that I don't like, even though they coach for teams that I don't root for, and yes, even if they have personal failings. The idea of judging someone to be a "bad person" because they curse or because they teach how to take a charge seems ridiculously petty.
