There’s a reason why Graham is the best at what he does. Compelling stories like this aren’t always shared, what a great insight into the life of Coach Williams
I can remember meeting him on one of his walks around campus when I was working on a house there in Chapel Hill. My Mom had cancer and would die few months later coach told me this story!
If you just look at his tenure and success in the ACC, there’s no telling how many wins and championships he would have. Kansas is a great school but he kept losing top prospects, high school players, to Kentucky, Duke, UCLA, Indiana. He rebuilt the KU program which was in probation when he was hired, and turned it into a perennial contender. Great coach, Top 5 in my opinion.
Don’t know who this guy is too but a son sharing lovely stories about a wonderful mother, thru the good and bad times, can never be disappointing. I’m sad they weren’t able to spend more time together after her retirement
I'm from Kansas city and myself and many uncle's my dad all went to Mizzou. Roy Williams took over KU from Larry brown. Ku mu hed a fierce rivalry for over 109 year's. We thought that mu was going to dominate the big 8 for awhile. Unfortunately coach Willam's had something else in mind. As much as I dislike ku Roy Williams was a great coach and ambassador for the game.
