Dean Smith impacted hoops, people


Once, during a coaches meeting, made Lefty Driesell so angry the old Maryland coach wrote Smith a letter telling him he'd never shake his hand again. True to his word, the next time Maryland and UNC played, Driesell turned away the man he liked to call "a hook-nosed, little sucker." Yet years later, when Driesell's son, Chuck, came to him for advice about coaching, Driesell had just one tip. "I told him, 'Don't model yourself after me; model yourself after Dean,'" (ESPN.com)
