Came Up Empty: Tar Heels missed on their No. 1 recruit

Posted Jul 30, 2007

Although the last two classes made UNC one of the nation’s most talented teams, Williams thought that he had too many good players bunched in back-to-back classes. “I’d like to get it where it’s a three- or four-(player) class as opposed to a five or six routine every third year,” Williams said. “It’s just hard to plan with the junk that’s going on now. The culture now is everybody leaves as fast as you possibly can to get the dollar.” (Winston-Salem Journal)
