Winning not the only objective for Tar Heels
Posted Dec 20, 2007
This might not be the best day for UNC's basketball players to visit the buffet for a big lunch. Roy Williams has an ominous goal for practice. "See how many guys I can make throw up," he said angrily. That means Williams will run the top-ranked Tar Heels hard during today's practice even though they improved to 10-0 with the win. Williams wasn't content to blame the problems on weariness after final exams.
