Roy Williams reveals more than expected in book

Posted Nov 6, 2009
Roy Williams said he opened up more than he expected he would about his personal life in a recently published autobiography. “I shared some things I never thought I would share,” he said Thursday. “Some of that was very difficult.” The 288-page hardcover book, which is written with former Sports Illustrated writer Tim Crothers (a UNC instructor), is called “Hard Work: My Life On and Off the Court.” It was released this week.
