UNC's entire roster is made up of McDonald's AAs, yet they consistently get outplayed and blown out this season. I know he's won 2 titles, but both those teams and several others had 4-5 lottery picks! His teams show little heart or desire to even play defense, and potential is rarely developed! The guy flat out can't coach IMO

So who do you expect coaches to win titles with?

And UNC lost basically their entire roster after last season: John Henson, Barnes, Marshall, Zeller

But they have talent across the board still. How many Miami players do you think got offers from UNC? I'm gonna take a wild guess and say NONE, yet UNC is not even competive. My point is Roy Williams' teams have rarely ever overachieved. They don't do well unless they're ridiculously stacked

So because they aren't having a great year, Roy sucks as a coach? Wow!!! Are you grading coaches based off of how you play on NCAA13? Cause if so, let me tell you that it's much different. Williams team could have easily win it all last year if not for Kendall Marshall getting hurt. They were a couple of points away from the final 4 the year before, and he's won 2 freaking national championships. But you're right, he's overrated. Just because you get great players it doesn't mean they are going to win it all every year. But why am I telling you this, you're obviously the expert and hey, look at all those other college basketball coaches that are winning it all every year. Oh that's right, there aren't any

Did some of his teams fail to meet expectations, particularly at KU? Sure.

Is he overrated as a coach? No way.

No. This is a disappointing unit, but shite happens. He's a damn good coach.

Do the names Kendall Marshall, John Henson, Harrison Barnes, and Tyler Zeller ring a bell?

How can Roy be overrated? He has two national championships and seven final four appearances. Like Les Miles, his teams might not look pretty at times but he usually wins big.

Bras Stevens at Butler can coach circles around Roy. And most other coaches for that matter. He has average talent and Butler regularly handles teams with superior athleticism on a weekly basis.

He's overrated as a coach I agree, but he gets talent....And I hate his timeout strategy...he only used 1 timeout in a blowout game
