Williams Says he Misunderstood Rules: Former Kansas and current North Carolina head coach Roy Williams said that there was no intentional wrongdoing when he approved gifts to graduating players and others whose eligibility had expired. He issued the statement in response to Kansas’ recent admission of NCAA rules violations in its athletic department. Payments and clothing went as far back as 1998, and Williams cited a “communication problem” with the school’s compliance department in believing the gifts were permitted. Before leaving to coach his alma mater in 2003, Williams reached four Final Fours and won 418 games in 15 seasons at Kansas. [7/17/05]
