Roy Williams Endures

Posted May 14, 2015
What a year it has been for Roy Williams. On Tuesday, former UNC head coach and longtime assistant Bill Guthridge died of heart failure. Guthridge, who coached Williams’s freshman team in 1968-69, died some three months after UNC coaching legend Dean Smith passed away on Feb. 7. Guthridge and Smith, along with former high school coach Buddy Baldwin, formed the fatherly trinity that served as Williams’s foundation. (Inside Carolina)
