UNC hoops experience on display tonight

Posted Oct 12, 2007

For the first time in Williams' 20 seasons as a head coach, he doesn't have any first-year freshmen. William Graves, who redshirted last season, is the lone freshman. It's a change for the Tar Heels, who relied heavily on freshmen the past two seasons. "In most ways I like it, because I think we can go a lot faster in our drills," Williams said. "I think we can teach the principles a little faster." (Charlotte Observer)
