Charlie Scott, UNC’s first black basketball player, discusses Chancelor Folt and Silent Sam

Posted Jan 16, 2019
Charlie Scott: "The University of North Carolina in the whole system is the crown jewel and I think too many times we use, and when I say we I mean the University, use the character and moral fortitude of Coach Smith to give us a picture of what the University is about. But I don’t think today they can use Coach Smith’s moral character as the way the board responded to Ms. Folt." (Daily Tar Heel)
