Charlie Scott on UNC's hiring of Hubert Davis, the way he would use today's student-athlete platform

Posted Apr 10, 2021
Charlie Scott, now 72 and living in Atlanta, was recruited by Dean Smith and thrust into the focus of racism that permeated in opposition to justice in the Civil Rights Era. He overcame that with an excellent career. His three seasons, from 1967 to 1970, resulted in All-America selections during his junior and senior seasons, averaging 22.1 points per game.
