Posted Feb 7, 2016
Today is the one-year anniversary of Dean Smith's death. On Friday, UNC coach and former Smith assistant Roy Williams discussed his mentor's continual impact on the program. "Everything we do, it's 85 percent Coach Smith, 14 percent Bob Knight, John Thompson, Jerry Tarkanian. And one percent Roy Williams. And that may be giving me too much credit."
