Roy Williams named best college basketball coaching hire of the past 25 years
Posted Apr 30, 2020
1. Roy Williams, North Carolina Tar Heels (2003): What we've seen over the past 17 years says the Tar Heels were right to try the first time and then to keep trying. Since UNC hired Williams, no Division I men's basketball coach has won more national titles. Williams has put three trophies on the shelf, making this the No. 1 hire over the last 25 years.
