Money Matters: What About Roy?

When word began to trickle out that North Carolina was going to hire Butch Davis to lead its football program, eyebrows were raised at the revelation that Davis would be making "Roy-type money" in Chapel Hill. At the time of Davis' hiring, Roy Williams said he wasn't at all concerned about his compensation package. "I’m comfortable with it. I worked under the same contract since 1990 until I left Kansas. I’ve got no problem with it the way it is. I’m happy as long as I’ve got enough money to buy golf balls." (David Glenn's ACC Journal)
