Roy Williams defends players, calls CNN report untrue and ‘totally unfair’

Posted Jan 9, 2014
Roy Williams said Wednesday night that he feels “mentally, probably worse than I’ve ever felt as a head coach.” And his team’s ugly 63-57 loss to Miami at the Smith Center was only part of the reason he was so down. A day earlier, CNN published a report in which a former UNC employee claimed that she worked with a Tar Heel basketball player that “couldn’t read or write.” (Wilmington Star News)
