UNC’s road to Final Four runs through Roy Williams’ old neighborhood

Posted Mar 24, 2012
North Carolina’s path to another Final Four runs right through Roy Williams’ old neighborhood. Williams and his current team, the top-seeded Tar Heels, will face his old team Kansas in the Midwest Regional finals Sunday. It’s been almost nine years since Williams left the Jayhawks to return “home,” and whatever bad feelings there might have been about his departure have long since subsided. (Washington Post)
