Tar Heels close out nonconference slate with a win, but still have questions

Posted Jan 3, 2019
The ACC basketball season is about to begin. To listen to UNC’s Roy Williams, his Tar Heels are still a long way from being ready. “Stuff’s over now,” the Hall of Fame coach said after UNC beat Harvard 77-57 at Smith Center in its final nonconference test. “It’s big-time basketball in front of us now. We’ve got to play better.” It’s not as if the Tar Heels struggled to beat the Crimson. (North State Journal)
