Jay Bilas on why Roy Williams is irreplaceable

Posted Apr 1, 2021
This may be blasphemy to some, but I believe Roy Williams is the coaching equal to Dean Smith, both as a coach and a person. That is not a slight to Coach Smith, whom I revere, but a compliment to Williams, whom I respect and admire as much as Coach Smith. That UNC has had two such all-time greats and icons at the helm is nothing short of amazing. (ESPN.com)
