The Best Basketball Class in the Nation
Posted Aug 14, 2006
Coach Roy Williams wanted to fill the final holes created by the departures of seven players from UNC's 2005 NCAA Tournament championship team. He signed six high-school all-stars to form the class rated No. 1 in the nation by almost every recruiting analyst. This class can solve a lot of problems, strengthen almost any weakness and help a team play deep into the NCAA Tournament. Williams ranks it with the finest recruiting classes of his 18-year coaching career.
