Roy Williams: Landing Barnes 'a pretty good feeling'

Posted Nov 16, 2009
North Carolina basketball coach Roy Williams wasn't sure the Tar Heels would land the nation's top-rated recruit until Harrison Barnes' face showed up on his computer Friday afternoon. Barnes, a 6-foot-8 forward from Ames, Iowa, signed a national letter-of-intent with the UNC, but first made his official announcement to Williams via the Internet video conferencing software application, Skype.
