In 15 seasons at Kansas, Roy Williams coached 519 games. Now in his 14th season at North Carolina, Williams has coached 480 games. The Tar Heels' next game, on Wednesday night at Indiana, will be Williams' 1,000th game as a head coach.
There are 351 Division I college basketball teams. The sport has been around now for more than 100 years. And in its history, only 21 men have coached at least 1,000 games. It's a milestone few ever reach. And so approaching his 1,000th game, what keeps Williams going?
