Posted Jan 12, 2022
For the time since Roy Williams left Kansas to take the UNC coaching job 19 years ago, the Hall of Fame coach was back for a Jayhawks game at Allen Fieldhouse on Tuesday. After the first television timeout, there was nice a video tribute to Williams on the scoreboard screen. The crowd cheered loudly for him and his wife, Wanda, with a standing ovation.
