Monmouth's King Rice, a UNC grad, weighs in on scandal

Posted Oct 24, 2014
"I had an incredible experience at the University of North Carolina and I feel like I played for the best coach in the history of college basketball (Dean Smith)," said King Rice, Monmouth University's head coach and a star point guard for the Tar Heels from 1987-91. "I have some lifelong friends that are still there and it is a great institution. I would go there again and I would send my kids there, too." (Asbury Park Press)
