Sleep? Not for ol' Roy

Posted Nov 15, 2008
Roy Williams expected to have a sleepless night Friday. He already knew he would be missing starters Tyler Hansbrough and Marcus Ginyard, plus reserve Mike Copeland, when his top-ranked team opens the season against Penn today. Now he does not know how much backup guard Bobby Frasor, who sprained his left ankle Monday but returned to practice Friday afternoon, will be able to contribute when the Tar Heels open the season against Penn today.
