Oakes’ Outlook: The Fire Still Burns

Posted Dec 31, 2014
Tuesday night served as a glaring reminder to any who may have thought UNC’s 64-year-old Hall of Fame coach had lost his edge. Folks, the fire still burns. Somehow, Roy Williams was given a technical foul for yelling at one of his own players, freshman Theo Pinson. Contrary to what some may have thought, Ol’ Roy wasn’t arguing the foul call. Not at all, even though the whistle was questionable at best. (OakeSports)
