Badly out of date[edit]

This article hadn't been updated with any new information since 2012 and even linked to a six year-old version of his profile on the Internet Archive. I updated his record and Coach of the Year awards tonight, may do a little more with it later. Also removed some stuff from the intro that was NPOV and already covered in the "Court Cases" section.

Lawsuit[edit]

To expand on this, somebody could maybe add the history of the lawsuit(s) against him (keeping in mind NPOV of course).--{{SUBST:User:Coryma}} 00:55, 3 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The reference to the criticism about the roses comes from a Sports Illustrated article regarding UNC's dyansty. The article was published in 1989 or 1990. I can't find a copy on the web. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mohrflies (talk • contribs) 06:07, 28 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
