Former Tar Heel players pursue coaching dreams at UNC

Posted Jan 5, 2012
By pure coincidence, Jackie Manuel and Bobby Frasor each arranged meetings with their former UNC coach, Roy Williams, on the same day this offseason. They were seeking advice on their futures. “I’d been talking with coach [Williams] about coaching since my first year out [of college],” Manuel said. Frasor had the desire to coach at an even earlier age. His father had coached high school hoops for 27 years. (WRAL Sports Fan)
