Roy Williams on the Wears' transfer: "I haven't dealt with it very well"

Posted Jun 24, 2010
David and Travis Wear's abrupt decision to transfer from UNC's program didn't sit well with head coach Roy Williams. Losing the twin forwards after just one season was a serious blow to the Tar Heels' roster, and Williams admitted the news didn't find him well personally. "I have not spoken to them and I haven't dealt with it very well," Williams said Thursday at his summer press conference. (WRAL Sports Fan)
