Jim Boeheim on Roy Williams' 800th win: 'He's one of the very best basketball coaches'

Posted Jan 17, 2017
On Monday, Roy Williams joined Jim Boeheim as the newest member of the very select 800-win fraternity. Only nine coaches have earned 800 Division I victories. Only three are active. "He's a great coach,'' Boeheim said. "He's one of the top coaches that has ever coached in college basketball. There is no debate about that. He doesn't need me to say that.'' (Syracuse.com)
