Posted Aug 14, 2022
Why didn’t Charlie Scott go to Davidson to play for Lefty Driesell? Scott said Tar Heels coach Dean Smith invited him to Chapel Hill for Jubilee, the spring music concert at UNC. "I got to see Smokey Robinson and the Miracles and the Temptations...and Davidson at that time was all boys," Scott said. He decided Carolina was where he wanted to go. (Morganton News Herald)
