Dexter Strickland doesn’t mind being focus of Roy Williams’ attention

Posted Dec 29, 2011
North Carolina shooting guard Dexter Strickland said that Coach Roy Williams rides him harder than any other starter. But the junior wouldn’t have it any other way. “He’s on me the most because he has a lot of expectations for me and he sees my potential, and if he didn’t, it would show that he didn’t care,” Strickland said. Besides, Williams is no harder on Strickland than the junior is on himself. (Durham Herald-Sun)
