At North Carolina, Davidson was the darling

Posted Mar 31, 2008

If North Carolina coach Roy Williams was pulling for his former employer to reach the Final Four on Sunday, he was a lonely creature in this town. Davidson-mania spread wherever a television beamed the Midwest Regional final, won by Kansas in a 59-57 survival. When Jason Richards’ 27-footer missed the mark as time expired, groans and shrieks of anguish filled the Graham Student Union. Nary a Rock Chalk Chant was heard. (Kansas City Star)
