Anyone who's tried to read Roy's lips during UNC games is aware that he has a pretty extensive vocabulary all right.

I wonder if he is gonna tell em to Win at all cost and you can make more money than the president if you drop out of school and play Pro basketball.

Reading is overrated - just take Naval Weapons and "A"s for everyone.

Oh the irony of anybody from UNC speaking about literacy!

I would dare say that some of these middle school students are more proficient in reading than some of your players. That's why I'm a DUKE fan. Just something about college athletes with a vocabulary of more than seven words is inspiring. But don't take my word for it, just listen to some of the post-game interviews.

I hope none of those kids are wearing NC State shirts. Remember, Roy...BB guns are not allowed in schools.

Please at least make sure the athletes that show up, can actually read.
