Roy Williams forgiven in Kansas

Posted Apr 15, 2008

Roy Williams is out of the outhouse. The large sketch of the former Kansas basketball coach was removed from the men's room of the Downtown Barbershop on Monday where it had hung as a symbol of fan anger since he departed for North Carolina in 2003. Now "Ol' Roy" is back where he used to be, prominently displayed among the sketches, photographs and memorabilia that make the landmark little shop near the campus a shrine to Jayhawks athletics.
