UNC head coach Roy Williams does not care what you think.

Fans, media, your Uncle Jimmy all think they know when Roy should call a timeout

"You know the two easiest jobs in the world?" Coach Williams asked the media.

"...College basketball coach or golf course superintendent, because everybody knows how to do you job better than you do."

The topic of timeouts was posed because Duke put a 20-4 run on North Carolina in the ACC Tournament semi-final. Coach Williams did not call a timeout.

Roy is not changing his philosophy on calling timeouts.

His answer to a question about his timeout philosophy started a rant that lasted over six minutes.

"My philosophy is the same dadgum philosophy it has been for 29 years --- I call them when I want to. And I don't care what the blankety blank blank anybody says.

"It doesn't me bother guys. Find something damn original to think about. I have been criticized for 29 years for not calling timeouts..."

Coach Williams believes there are already too many timeouts in college basketball.

"There were two timeouts during the course of (Duke's) run anyway," he said. "Timeouts are overrated. God Almighty we take a timeout ever time the referee gets a heartbeat. 12, 16, 8, 4. Watch me --- I keep my guys in the huddle less than any coach in basketball. I send them out. I am tired of talking to them. There is only so much I can say. So my policy/philosophy/thought process I am going to call a timeout when I think it's the right time to call. Seriously."

Coach Williams says that his philosophy has been pretty success. Roy won his 800th game this season. Carolina has won 36 NCAA Tournament games under Roy. He is second in the nation with 12 No. 1 seeds. He has been to eight Final Fours and won two National Championships.

"I am not going to change, because we have been pretty damn good," Williams said. "Think about it guys: I have coached 1,000 games. We have been in some tight situations. We have won some games."

Coach Williams talks with his team during a timeout earlier this season.

His rant continued:

"I am going to call it when the hell I want to call it. I don't care what you say, what anybody else says. Makes no difference --- you haven't been on the bench 1,000 games --- I have. So that is my philosophy, talk all the hell you want, makes no difference to me. We've won some games by not calling timeouts.

"One player said, 'if you call a timeout, I am going to panic.' And that is a hell of a lot more important to me than anything you guy say or any plumber that is putting something on facebook."

Finally, Coach Williams gave a simple answer as to when he will call a timeout: "That's your answer: If I don't like the look on my guys' face I'll probably call a timeout...If my guys look nervous or if they look confused or panicky, I call it at that point."

No. 1 seed North Carolina (27-7) takes on No. 16 seed Texas Southern (23-11) at approximately 4:00 PM on Friday, March 17 in Greenville's Bon Secour Wellness Arena.
