600 reasons to celebrate

Posted Nov 30, 2009
Roy Williams, who is in his 22nd season as a head coach, becomes the 33rd coach in Division I history to reach 600 wins and is the eighth active head-coach to reach the mark. Williams is also the third fastest to reach 600, doing it in 739 games. Only Adolph Rupp (704 games) and Jerry Tarkanian (720) reached the mark quicker. "It's a lot of great players and great assistant coaches," said Williams. (Durham Herald-Sun)
