Chansky’s Notebook: Eric Montross, The Best Man

Posted Oct 17, 2023
Why Eric Montross is beloved by so many who don’t know him. I met Eric when he played for UNC in the early 1990s. It did not take a genius to figure out he is such a solid citizen and great individual, why so many people are praying for his recovery from cancer. "Top 10 nicest people I’ve ever met," is the refrain from those lucky to know him. (Chapelboro.com)
