So I'm out to lunch here in Ft Worth at a place called Railhead BBQ (GREAT food, btw) with a group of co-workers, and while I'm eating I look over at tht next table and notice some guys that look like they've been out playing golf... I notice that one of them looks quite familiar... A double-take later, I realize it's Matt Doherty... Our groups both stand to leave at the same time, so while passing him I look at him and say "Go TarHeels"... He said "Hey! That's right!"... He asked me if I was from NC, and i told him I was... He asked where from, and I told him the Greensboro area... He told me that he was moving back to NC next month... I asked him if he was gonna be coaching, and he said "No, gonna be fishing... and might do some broadcasting." I told him to enjoy being back home, and good luck with the broadcasting... He shook my hand and that was it... Was a very, very nice guy... Would have liked to have had more time to chat...

Thought you guys would enjoy that on an otherwise slow Thursday...

Ived met him in person and he really is a nice guy. Just not a great coach. He can recruit with the best of them, just doesn't know what to do with them once he's got them.

PS...I almost hit Roy with my car going thru campus in 2007. I was looking at a hot girl walking down the side walk and just happened to look in front of me and there was Coach at the cross walk jogging with, I think it was Haase. I had to slam on brakes to avoid hitting him and coach just stared at me. After a second or two I yelled Go Heels! and he looked back and smiled at me. It was awesome.

Almost as much as they miss being relevant.
