Roy Williams tears up about ovation at Kansas Jayhawks game: ‘It was pretty dang nice’

Posted Jan 13, 2022
Former Kansas men’s basketball coach Roy Williams returned to Allen Fieldhouse on Tuesday night — the first game he’d attended in the building since he was KU’s coach in 2003. At the first media timeout, KU played a tribute video to him, and fans gave him a standing ovation. Williams became emotional when discussing that moment with reporters at halftime.
