Roy Williams' Early Timeout Another Strange Moment in Strange Start for UNC

Posted Nov 21, 2019
It took just over two minutes Wednesday for another strange turn in what has been a strange two weeks for North Carolina. As another errant pass flew out of bounds, Roy Williams tapped both hands on his chest and did the unthinkable. A timeout. At the 17:51 mark of the first half. Of a November game. “Earliest one in my history, I’m sure,” he said. (Heels Maven)
