UNC's Roy Williams has a history of success in the NCAA first round. Can he stay perfect?

Posted Mar 19, 2021
Roy Williams doesn't like to talk about his perfect record in the first round of the NCAA Tournament. In fact, the last time he was asked about it, he mildly threatened a reporter albeit under the guise of his folksy charm. "If we lose, don't let me know where you live," Williams laughed while responding before the opening round of the 2019 NCAA Tournament. (Fayetteville Observer)
