Roy Williams said Thursday at his regularly scheduled press conference that P.J. Hairston and Leslie McDonald will not play against Kentucky. "I'm sure the NCAA would like it to be over with too," Williams said. "There's no update. We're just staying the course." Saturday will mark the first-ever whiteout at the Smith Center. Every fan in the building will find a special t-shirt on their seat when they arrive. (GoHeels.com)
