Ol’ Roy dropped a dadgum bombshell this week by announcing his retirement after 18 years as head coach of the UNC men’s basketball team.

As a dyed-in-the-wool Carolina fan, I shared some of the frustrations with his seeming stubbornness. Like, play zone sometimes. And get your team hyped to play in the ACC tournament like you did EVERY time they played State. On the other hand, I actually came around on the timeout thing, mostly because of this.

Quibbles about his idiosyncrasies aside, you can’t argue with results. He led the Tar Heels to 45 NCAA tournament wins, 5 Final Fours, 4 title games and 3 national titles in his 18 years here, the best of any program during this period. So thought it only fitting to have the PAX of TBL pay their respects by doing a rep for each of his 903 career wins, 485 at UNC, 418 at Kansas. Warm-up reps counted, IC counted as one rep.

• Slow squat x 20IC
• LBAC x 10IC, reverse x 10IC
• Slow Merkin x 15IC

• 10 burpees at each corner and low squat hold. Then observed that the UNC basketball motto is Play Hard. Play Smart. Play Together.  So we did 10 burpees IC together.
• 15 Merkins at each corner – plank hold. Then Pep counted 15 Merkins for us to do together
• 20 dry docks at each corner – low plank hold – Count Chocula counted 20 dry docks together
• 25 WWII at each corner – low squat hold – Houdini counted 25 WWII together
