Heels heed message of an angry Williams
Posted Nov 10, 2007
Roy Williams told reporters that he got on his players "a little bit" at practice during the week. After hearing that, members of UNC men's basketball team are sure of one thing: They don't want to know what it's like for their head coach to get on them a lot. The Tar Heels, who held Lenoir-Rhyne to 31 percent shooting in a 107-52 exhibition victory Friday night at the Smith Center, said Williams made clear in practices that he expected them to improve on defense.
