UNC heeds Roy Williams' warning, avoids letdown

Posted Feb 24, 2019
Before dismissing his North Carolina basketball team after beating No. 1-ranked Duke last Wednesday, Roy Williams issued a warning. “When we got back Wednesday, before I let them get off the bus, I talked to them about that we did some good things and got a W, but we have to keep playing or ‘you’ll give it back,’” Williams said Saturday.
