When Pitt comes to North Carolina, coach Roy Williams seeks more than historic win

Posted Jan 7, 2020
Roy Williams has presided over 1,119 college basketball games — not counting 11 seasons when he was a Dean Smith assistant at North Carolina. He needs one victory to pass Smith for fourth among Division I men’s coaches, behind Mike Krzyzewski, Jim Boeheim, and Bob Knight. Historic victory No. 880 could come against Pitt on Wednesday.
