Wes Durham describes late father's disorder, knows he would have cherished Duke-UNC Final Four
Posted Apr 2, 2022
After 40 years on the mic at UNC, Woody Durham stepped away in 2017 after a diagnosis of primary progressive aphasia, which takes away the ability to talk and eventually other functions. He died in 2018. UNC named the Athletics Media Center in his honor, and his name is coming up again as his son, Wes Durham, prepares to call the Final Four.
