Walk of Shame: Roy Williams Still Doesn’t Get it

Think back to your college days – or to perhaps this morning – and you should recall what the “walk of shame†is. Things are still blurry as you try to sort out what happened last night. Much like when your roommate helped you recall the debauchery, so to are we here to help sort out yesterday’s sports madness.
Memo to No. 31: Horse Collar Tackles Are Illegal
One would assume that Roy Williams realizes he can’t pull guys down by the back of their pads seeing as the rule is in place because of him.
