Roy Williams Encourages Gaucho Fans to Keep It Up
Posted Nov 22, 2008
After his top-ranked basketball team survived its first game in a hostile environment, North Carolina coach Roy Williams gave Santa Barbara a pep talk. “The enthusiasm of the crowd was sensational," Williams said. “If they keep that up, I know it will help them in their conference.” Williams was talking about the 6,000 spectators who packed the Thunderdome and the UCSB Gauchos, who put up a spirited fight Friday night in an 84-67 defeat to the Tar Heels.
