The nightmare season for UNC continues. Ranked #9 preseason UNC is now 8-8.
Roy Williams has hit the lowest point in his career.
The legendary North Carolina coach, amid an incredibly rough season, fell to Clemson 79-76 in overtime at the Dean Smith Center on Saturday afternoon, marking the Tar Heels’ first ever loss to the Tigers at home after winning 59 straight.
He made a crucial mistake at the end of regulation, too.
North Carolina was up three points with just 12 seconds left, and went back to play defense one final time. Instead of fouling to put the Tigers on the line, the Tar Heels let them play — leading to Clemson’s Aamir Simms hitting a 3-pointer to tie the game and eventually send it into overtime.
Williams said after the game that he simply forgot to tell his team to foul.

Re: North Carolina and Roy Williams
Old Roy is losing it.
I never considered his bench coaching to be all that great.
His teams usually have so much talent they have overcome that.
But without their point guard they have fallen apart.
Most important position in college BB without a doubt.

Roy is a big time douche. He says to his AD "fire me". If he is fired he gets paid his contract. If he doesn't want to coach anymore he should quit.

Exactly if he really had integrity he would would forfeit his guaranteed salary.
