Kendall Marshall putting up numbers even Roy Williams can’t ignore
Posted Jan 15, 2011
Roy Williams isn’t the kind of coach who likes to be told what to do. Maybe that explains his reluctance to make the transition from junior Larry Drew II to freshman Kendall Marshall as UNC’s starting point guard. It’s almost as if Williams has stuck with Drew despite growing calls for a change just to show the media, the fans and some of his own players that he can. And that he’s in charge, not them.
