Discussing Dean Smith's 80th bday.

Split screen, Roy W on the left, Doh on the right...Roy wearing tarhole blue and Doh with something SMU on, with the SMU backdrop we see at the postgame press conferences. Good brand awareness setup.

Hope the Fab 4 gel next year and the freshmen come along and the game vs NM goes well next year, and all that leads up to SMU-UNC at the AAC in 2012. How I'd love to see Doh beat Ol Roy

Didn't say much other than "Dean Smith was great," but good to see him pimping SMU on a national stage.

If nothing else, it looked good for SMU. He had the logo on his shirt and every few inches on the backdrop, and he talked as if he's the same as Roy Williams and George Karl. Will it help in recruiting? Probably not, but it sure didn't hurt.

Nice to see him pay tribute to his old coach.

Great to see Coach in the national spotlight- typical Roy Williams to attempt to steal the show and tell a ridiculous 3 minute story, taking time away from Doherty.

Loved the split screen- you could definitely tell that there was no love lost between Roy and Doh.

I got that idea too. Doh looked miserable while Roy was talking

lol @ robodoh sharing a split screen w/Roy, while discussing Dean. That had to be haunted walk down memory lane for the guy, but he did it all for PR

If we run the table in the conference tourney (which isn't out of the realm of possibility, especially if Dia and Nyakundi stay hot and someone else catches on fire during the tournament...and if we don't run into UTEP out there), we'd get into the tourney probably as a 13 or 14 seed. UNC is going to be a 3 or 4 seed (depending on how their ACC tourney run goes).

Not terribly probable, but certainly possible that we may see a Robo vs. Roy matchup this year.

There is a possibility we could win the tourney or we could get knocked out in the first round. I would love to see SMU win it and go to the dance.

Don't forget the possibility of finishing somewhere in the middle.
