This opinionated article on CharlotteObserver.com thinks that North Carolina head coach Roy Williams was overtaken by boredom.
An excerpt:
The problem was Presbyterian was not good rumble material. The game was over the second the contract to play it was signed. When you're ahead by 40 points in December, it's just not a good time to pick a fuss with the coach of a church team.
With little better to keep him occupied, Roy checked out the audience and found some poor soul to take out his boredom and frustration on.
It wasn't a smart idea to get the bloke booted, of course. When North Carolina goes to Duke, you can go ahead and make book that Mike Krzyzewski will have Deon Thompson removed from Cameron for sassing the Crazies during pregame drills. Don't laugh. It happened to former N.C. State coach Les Robinson's son-in-law a few years back.
But by now, Roy probably regrets doing it, and particularly during a slow week around these parts for sports news. I wouldn't be surprised if he hasn't tracked down the evictee and shipped him a dozen Titleists and an autographed copy of "Hard Work." Hey, maybe the title of Roy's next book could be "Hard Words."

My Thoughts: Roy gets my vote as college basketball's loser of the week.
