Roy Williams 'Happy' NCAA Ordeal is Over

Posted Oct 17, 2017
There was more relief than anything in Roy Williams' comments on the finality of the NCAA investigation. “I did not jump up and down. I did not scream. I didn’t gloat. I went over to a corner in the room and just stood there by myself and tried to collect my thoughts. There wasn’t any big show of emotion kind of thing. That’s not the way I felt. I was just happy that it was over.” (Inside Carolina)
