Chansky’s Notebook: Hurts So Good

Posted Jan 9, 2019
Roy Williams played 10 men. That won’t be the regular rotation most games, but the subs scrapping and hustling got UNC to the final buzzer without Cam Johnson, who thankfully only had leg cramps. A true team win is everyone who plays putting it all on the line every minute they’re out there. The turnovers must be fixed, but 2-0 on the road is a dad-gum good ACC start. (Chapelboro.com)
