During his time prowling the sidelines for the North Carolina Tar Heels, Dean Smith helped set the standard for what a basketball coach should be, both in terms of on-court success and off-the-court guidance. Smith, who passed away in February at age 83, will be the subject of a Showtime documentary simply titled Dean Smith, which is set to air Wednesday night at 9 p.m. ET. (Bleacher Report)
