Roy Williams gives backstory to Final Four tribute to Bo Ryan's father, Butch
Posted Oct 31, 2015
North Carolina head coach Roy Williams had plenty of basketball to discuss at the ACC's media day, with the Tar Heels projected to be not only the top team in the league but one of the best in the entire country -- including being ranked No. 1 in the CBS Sports Preseason Top 25 (and one). But one under the radar note from his availability with the writers on Wednesday was the backstory behind Williams' tribute to Wisconsin coach Bo Ryan's father, Butch, at the 2015 national title game.
