No. 1 seed UNC stops trying to 'be cool' in second half in 88-73 win over Iona

Posted Mar 23, 2019
There’s nothing Roy Williams hates more than someone trying to “be cool.” And that’s exactly what he thought his team was doing in the first half Friday. So when he entered the locker room at halftime to address his players, he made his message clear. Not by yelling, or scolding, or panicking, but by coaching, as Kenny Williams noted after the game.
