In reply to: 20 years since Doherty left ND. Great article from Noie (link)  posted by RIBS


said a few different times that when he heard the UNC job opened he thought that meant he'd be going to Kansas to replace Roy Williams? Is he really suggesting he would have turned down Kansas to remain at ND?

My Doherty story is after his intro press conference when he was taking additional questions from a group of reporters, I just stood in the circle listening and since it seemed like no one cared that I was there I decided I'd ask him a question. He asked if I was with the student newspaper and I said "no I'm just a student" and with kind of a strange intensity he replied "you're not JUST a student, we need your support". I certainly appreciated how much he wanted to pump life into the program but wasn't too surprized when word started to come out that he was a bit unhinged.
