North Carolina announced Thursday that Hall of Fame basketball coach Roy Williams is retiring after a 33-year career that includes three national championships.
The decision comes two weeks after the 70-year-old Williams closed his 18th season with the Tar Heels after a highly successful run at Kansas.
Williams won 903 games in a career that included those three titles, all with the Tar Heels, in 2005, 2009 and 2017. North Carolina scheduled a campus news conference for Thursday afternoon.
UNC lost to Wisconsin in the first round of the NCAA Tournament in his final game, which was Williams' only first-round loss in 30 tournaments.
