Tar Heels' Roy Williams no fan of late starts
Posted Mar 23, 2007
North Carolina coach Roy Williams is real clear on how he feels about late starting times in the NCAA tournament. "Dumb as dirt," he said earlier this week. No matter, the Tar Heels will tip off right around 10 p.m. tonight in East Rutherford, N.J., against USC. That'll be the second semifinal in the East Regional, following Vanderbilt-Georgetown. North Carolina star Tyler Hansbrough isn't nearly as bothered as his coach.
