Seven years after his dad's death, Mark Prosser still learning from Skip


Even now, more than seven years after Skip Prosser’s stunning death, Mark Prosser rarely has a chance to tell people stories about his dad. He has stories he would love to share, of course, but when the conversation turns to Skip, it’s tough getting a word in edgewise. Seems that almost everyone in the college basketball community has at least one story about Skip — who died of a heart attack at 56 years old on July 26, 2007, while head coach at Wake Forest — that they can’t wait to share with Mark.
