Roy Williams: Turnout for North Carolina’s exhibition game against Barton College ‘discouraging’

Posted Oct 28, 2017
On Friday night, North Carolina hosted Barton College in an exhibition at the Dean Smith Center, which the Tar Heels won 91-80. These games are a chance for fans to get a first look at the Tar Heels in game action, as well as an opportunity for coaches to experiment with different lineups.
