UNC's Williams not looking for pay cut, but understands economic issues
Posted Feb 28, 2009
Don’t expect Roy Williams to take a pay cut any time soon. But the North Carolina coach has felt the effects of a bad economy. When a reporter asked Williams if he could consider a reduction in his salary to help the UNC system, Williams took a diplomatic tone. “If you say ‘yeah,’ then somebody’s going to call today and say, ‘OK, give it all back.’” Williams said. “If you say ‘no,’ you come across as being insensitive.”
