If this right here doesn’t sum up who Coach Williams is, I don’t know what does. That’s the man he is and that’s what made him so special. Just so friggin thankful for him and so sad that he won’t be going up and down those sidelines again. Truly one of a kind.
From the article:
On the day Roy Williams created seismic news by retiring as one of college basketball’s titans, Coby White spoke to his North Carolina coach.
But in a telling sign of the loyalty Williams bred with his players -- current and former -- Williams called White.
“What’s crazy is he called me because he didn’t see me in the (Bulls') box score, so he was making sure that I was OK,” White said via Zoom from Salt Lake City in advance of Friday’s Bulls-Jazz matchup. “He didn’t even call to talk about everything that had happened. He called to see what was wrong with me.”
