ROY WILLIAMS RADIO SHOW – TRANSCRIPT
November 27, 2005
WOODY: Welcome once again to another edition of the Roy Williams Radio Show, with Coach Roy Williams of the National Champion North Carolina Tar Heels. And me, your host, Woody Durham. Brought to you buy Beefmaster Franks. Beefmaster: Master your beef. And Food Lion: Selling only fresh meat now. It’s not your father’s Food Lion. Welcome Coach.
ROY: Hi Woody. Great to be here.
WOODY: Before we go to the calls, talk a little about the team’s early progress this year.
ROY: Well, we are coming along Woody. As you know we lost our top 7 players, including 4 NBA draft picks, as well as our leading defensive player. To say we’re young would be an understatement. We’re practically embryonic. …
WOODY: Oooo. Good word. How about zygotic?
ROY: No, that’s just gross. … So anyway, we’re young. We’re learning as we go. We struggled against a very good Gardner-Webb club.
(Woody does spit take.)
ROY: Are you OK?
WOODY: Yeah. … Oh, I thought you were kidding about Gardner-Webb.
ROY: No, they are a senior-led team. They’d probably finish in the top half of the ACC.
WOODY: Oh … of course… yes… sure, they’re good.
ROY: Anyway, we are getting better each game. And David Noel is showing great leadership for us.
WOODY: You seem to be a bit undecided about the point guard situation.
ROY: Yes, we have the veteran Thomas, and the freshman, Frasor, splitting time there. QT is probably the better defender, and has done a nice job so far cutting down on his turnovers. But Frasor is such a gritty gutty heady spunky gym rat. I just love kids like that. They remind me of me. Sometimes I deny him cokes just to see how he’ll react.
WOODY: You’ve got a tough test for both of these youngsters this week, facing Dee Brown of Illinois. I was shocked to see that Dee Brown was still on the Illini roster. It seems like he’s been at Illinois since the Lou Henson era. But in fact, he’s only a 5th year sophomore, due to injuries and such.
ROY: Yes, we’ve got our work cut out for us.
WOODY: Let’s go to the calls. Caller, you’re on the air with National Champion Coach Roy Williams.
CALLER: (Giggling) … Um … yeah, we want to know if you … um … Coach … if you like corn dogs … (Giggling) …
ROY: I love ‘em.
CALLER: Awesome! … (giggling) … because … um … we have this company … it’s called (giggling) … it’s called “Nobody’s Corn Dogs” (giggling) … and all the profits go to charity and stuff … and (giggling) we were wondering if you could … um … do a PSA for us?
ROY: PSA?
WOODY: Public service announcement.
ROY: Sure. What should I say?
CALLER: (giggling) … Say … Say … “It may sound corny, but nobody’s corn dogs are cornier than Nobody’s Corn Dogs!” … (giggling) … OK?
ROY: Sure. Be happy to. You want me to do it right now? You’re recording this?
CALLER: Yes.
ROY: Ready? …
CALLER: Yeah! …
ROY: … (CLICK)
WOODY: You hung up on them!
ROY: I may be corny but I’m not stupid. Next caller.
WOODY: Go ahead caller.
CALLER: Yeah, this is Myron from Chapel Hill. I’m in tech support. I am a big fan of Coach Williams. I have a Roy Williams mouse pad and a Roy Williams screen saver. Even my pocket protector is Carolina blue. I am one of Coach Williams’ biggest defenders on Inside Carolina.
WOODY: On where?
ROY: It’s a crapnet site, Woody.
CALLER: Yeah. Yo check it out Coach. The ICers was all like doggin’ you and saying we won’t get 20 wins in the regular season, right? But I was all like “when we win 20 you will all be my beyotches.” I RULE over there!
(Silence.)
ROY: I feel old.
WOODY: Listen Myron, since you have so much Roy Williams paraphernalia, you might be interested in a nice O-R-A-T-G umbrella, white with baby blue lettering.
CALLER: I’m not allowed to go outside. Doctor’s orders. Severe allergies. Besides, I wouldn’t buy it because Old Roy IS That Good, dog.
WOODY: You can’t go outside, ever? Dog?
CALLER: Never ever. But it’s OK because with the internet I can order stuff and have a full social life and get the news and such. I can even listen to the Heels on the Tar Heel Sports Network.
WOODY: (sniff) … Coach … the plight of this little guy has touched me.
ROY: Me too Woody. Good luck to you champ. I mean, dog.
CALLER: Thanks. Hey while I’m on the air I’d like to give a shout out … CLICK.
WOODY: Next caller, you’re on the air.
CALLER: Yeah, this is PackFan from Apex. I think the Pack is going to be a lot better without Da Jules this year. Most of my friends at the Seed ‘n Feed think I’m crazy. But sometimes a guy like that can screw up your chemistry. Coach Sendek is ready to put a balanced team on the floor this year, and I think we’re going to pose a problem for Carolina. What do you think Coach?
ROY: Da Jules?
WOODY: Julius Hodge. HONGRY!
ROY: What?
WOODY: They call him “Hongry”.
ROY: I thought they called him “Da Jules.”
WOODY: Yes, they call him that too. Since you are a hip-hop aficionado, I know I don’t have to tell you that “Da Jules” is a variation of “Ja Rule.”
ROY: No sir. You don’t have to tell me that.
WOODY (rhyming): Yeah, yeah, yo … I got a knack for pushin crack, and cookin raw coke … fresh off the boat, no vest but I tote, and wear it like a coat … I'm starin through the scope, with one eye open and one shut … Zero in on the target, spark him and watch his head bust … Ain't …
ROY: Stop it Woody.
WOODY: Word.
CALLER: Ahem!
ROY: Oh right. Your question. …. What was it again?
CALLER: I asked whether State will pose a problem for Carolina this year?
ROY: Well PackFan, the ACC is always tough. As you know, we lost our top seven players, and that includes our top 4, our top 3 and our top 2. So we have some good young recruits … blah blah blah … who are working hard … blah blah blah … respect our opponents … blah blah blah … Does that answer your question?
CALLER: No it doesn’t answer my question? What was all that “blah blah” stuff? Will State beat you or not?
ROY: No.
WOODY: No, I don’t see that happening either. Next caller?
CALLER: This is Hans from Urbana, Illinois. I can’t wait for Dee Brown and the boys to put a hurtin’ on you Heels this week. You guys were lucky to beat us in the finals last year. We were the people’s champs. Coach Bruce Wooden has the biggest brain in basketball. It’s HUGE!
ROY: Well, Illinois is a fine team. Coach … um … Weber has done a great job there. They ran a nice passing game last year, with some very aggressive screening and good ball movement.
WOODY: Their screens reminded me of the old days in the NFL before chop blocks were illegal.
ROY: Now Woody, let’s be gracious victors.
WOODY: “Gracious Victors”? Is that like “Nervous Nellies”?
ROY: What?
CALLER: Coach, how big is your head? I’ll bet Bruce Wooden’s head is bigger.
WOODY: I bet his head isn’t bigger than mine. I wear a size 9 hat. In high school I wasn’t allowed to play football because they didn’t have any helmets that would fit me. That’s how I got into announcing.
ROY: You called the games for your high school radio station?
WOODY: No. After I got cut I spent long hours in the sauna trying to shrink my head. One day at the YMCA sauna, I met Don Criqui. He was in town for a college football game … speaking of a guy with a huge head … Anyway, I was the only person in the steam room and he came in and asked me to leave. Well, ordered me to leave, really. As I was leaving he ushered in this beautiful woman who was wearing only a towel. That day, I resolved to go into broadcasting.
ROY: Always follow your dream. I remember a similar thing happening to me when I was a kid. I used to go with my friends to the corner store, where there was this coke machine …
WOODY: So anyway, caller, it doesn’t matter who has the biggest head. It’s what you do with it that counts. What Coach Williams and the Heels did was wallop Illinois last April. I hope they can do it again this week.
ROY: Well said, Wood-man.
WOODY: That’s all the time we have tonight on the Roy Williams Radio …
ROY: WAIT! No time for a Jewel poem?
WOODY: Well hush my mouth. What am I thinking. Of COURSE there’s time. There’s always time for words of wisdom from the lovely and buxom Alaskan.
ROY: Tonight I’ve selected a poem that I think illustrates the lesson you were just talking about: about following your passion. It’s called, “Follow Your Passion.” By Jewel.
Follow your passion
Down the off ramp of your soul
Past the truckstop of your loins
To the Denny’s of your heart
Let your heart’s desire
Fan the fires
And screech your tires
On life’s dirty liars
Follow your passion
Where it leads
Back up the on ramp of your soul
Put the top down
Feel the breeze in your hair
Gun my engine
Rev my motor
Trajan
The End.
WOODY: Yeah baby!
ROY: I thought that was a good one for our younger listeners.
WOODY: I hate that last line though.
ROY: Yes, that was unfortunate.
WOODY: That’s all the time we have. Remember the good folks at Beefmaster in your dinner plans. Next time you strap on the old feedbag, strap on a beefmaster. This is Woody Durham, for Coach Roy Williams, saying good night.
