Even at a clinic, Hansbrough's the center of attention

Posted Jan 1, 2008

Roy Williams was talking to them, but the youngsters weren't listening. It was just about time for autographs at UNC's Holiday Basketball Clinic on Monday and the assembled fourth- through eighth-graders were inching closer to their favorite player with posters in hand. "I didn't even think about saying the word 'move,' " the Tar Heels' coach said, admonishing everyone to get back in line. When Tyler Hansbrough is holding a black Sharpie, however, Coach Williams doesn't hold his usual sway. (Durham Herald-Sun)
