Even at podium, Roy Williams is ready to run

Posted Mar 26, 2011
In the middle of the Tar Heels' news conference here on Saturday, an alarm sounded in the Prudential Center. Roy Williams -- who was about to get a question from Newark Star-Ledger reporter Brendan Prunty -- waited while the alarm beeped, and then when a recorded voice suggested everyone leave the building, Williams stood up in a nanosecond, ready to run. “I’m not waiting around,’’ he said.
