Heels having fun

Posted Feb 27, 2006

“Coach starts talking about how he won his grade-school spelling bee 100 years ago,” said senior David Noel. “Reyshawn admitted he lost his and that he only got two words right — ’cat’ and ’dog.’ It was pretty funny. But that’s how this team is.” Added Roy Williams: “With converations like that, this is the most unusual group I’ve ever been around. But I’m enjoying the heck out of them.” (Fayetteville Observer)
