Dean Smith is spoken of in the same terms as legends like John Wooden and Adolph Rupp. And in a way more influential than Rupp, since Smith was instrumental in ending the age of college basketball teams that were all-white players in the southeastern USA.

RIP Coach Smith. Met him once when he came to see Michael Jordan play in high school.

Only Dean and Bobby Knight were players on a NCAA championship team, Dean with KU in 1952, and on a NCAA championship team as head coach...Dean has two in 82 and 93.
