Turgeon faces his mentor Roy Williams when Terps host North Carolina

Turgeon faces his mentor Williams as the Terps host North Carolina today

Before hiring Mark Turgeon in May, Maryland spoke to North Carolina coach Roy Williams, who provided his former staff member a glowing reference. "It's going to be weird coaching against him," Williams said of Turgeon, who was one of his assistants at Kansas. "I've always wanted him to win every single game he's been involved with.

Turgeon said coaching against the Tar Heels won't be as wrenching as facing Kansas earlier in his coaching career. But he and the Terps face a stiff test against the fifth-ranked Tar Heels (19-3, 6-1 ACC), who have won 13 of their last 14 games.
