Dean Smith's memory fading, but not his record

Posted Feb 11, 2013

This is Monday morning, and he is scheduled to be in later, for he still usually visits the first three workdays each week. But there will be little conversation with anyone, because one of the greatest basketball coaches the game has ever seen now dwells in the darkness. (USA Today)
