"Eric is the finest person I think I’ve ever met." That’s how Jones Angell, the play-by-play announcer for the Tar Heel Sports Network, described Eric Montross earlier in 2023 after Montross was diagnosed with cancer. He said while his co-host was a great basketball player, he was even better as a person. "He is as generous as they come," said Angell. (Chapelboro.com)
