Roy Williams' message: We don't intend to panic

Posted Jan 7, 2013
The ACC schedule has expanded from 16 games to 18, and North Carolina coach Roy Williams said an 0-1 start isn’t reason to panic. The Tar Heels opened league play with a 61-52 loss at Virginia on Sunday night, and they return to action Thursday against visiting Miami. “It is a marathon that you’re facing, and you can’t panic,” Williams said Monday.
