Roy Williams Takes Blame For End-Game Mistake

Posted Jan 11, 2020
For Roy Williams, the loss to Clemson wasn’t because of his team’s three turnovers in the last 1:36 of regulation or their failure to get over the hump in overtime, it was simply due to him forgetting to tell his players to foul before Clemson had a chance to get a shot off. "I’ve had some great moments as a coach and I’d say, right now, this is my lowest one." (Tar Heel Illustrated)
