Uncertain opener no pain in the neck for young Tar Heels
Posted Nov 10, 2017
Roy Williams was admittedly nervous going into UNC’s season opening basketball game against Northern Iowa on Friday. It’s a condition that only got worse when the Hall of Fame coach learned that grad transfer Cameron Johnson wouldn’t be available because of a strained neck suffered in practice earlier in the week. Williams need not have worried, though.
