Dean Smith’s Legacy Reaches Central Iowa
Posted Mar 27, 2015
Steve Krafcisin played one season at North Carolina before transferring closer to home at Iowa.

The letter is one of 180 $200 checks that Smith posthumously sent to his UNC letter winners. Krafcisin is one of only two players to play in two Final Fours for two different teams.
