Ejected? Really?

[Milk3]

I'm some what of a UNC fan and i even think this is stupid! Kicking a fan out of a game for telling a player to miss a free throw? If that's the only reason the fan was really kicked out and there was nothing else going on behind the scenes then Roy Williams needs to grow up.

"With six minutes to go in North Carolina's blowout win over Presbyterian yesterday at The Dean Dome, Roy Williams instructed security personnel to eject a fan who had heckled the Heels' Deon Thompson during a free throw attempt. The man, wearing a Presbyterian shirt and sitting a few rows behind the Carolina bench, yelled "hey Deon, don't miss it!" during the second free throw, which caused Williams to turn around, exchange some words and, eventually, point him out to security. WRAL has video of the incident."

"
When asked about the move after the game, Williams said:
"I don't think anybody should yell anything negative at our players. Period. Let's don't make it a bigger thing than it is. But I just don't think anybody should yell negative things toward our players (when) you come in on our tickets to watch our game.""

The vid doesn't show anything what the guy said, I have a very hard time believing 1) He just said what the guy in the blog said he did or 2) Williams going off like that if he didn't say something else or Williams thinking he said something else. Makes no sense.

I think Williams was just being nice and not mentioning what he really said so it didn't draw attention to the guy. I very seriously doubt he would go off like that because he yelled,"Hey Deon, miss the free throw". NO WAY that is all he said.

No matter what he said, ejecting someone like that is nothing more than showing off, flexing muscles.

If Roy cant take heckling, playing @Duke this year is gonna be rough
