"I would like to congratulate Matt Doherty and I would like to congratulate the University of North Carolina, which has hired a young coach with great promise and enthusiasm. Matt is a great choice for UNC's head basketball position. He has proven in a short time that he knows how to teach the game and his players have responded well to him both as a person and a coach. I was very impressed with his preparation and approach to the game and he comes with a great appreciation for North Carolina and the ACC. He will do an outstanding job. I look forward to competing against him for years to come."
