Posted Jan 4, 2018
It’s been three years since SportsCenter anchor and legendary ESPN personality Stuart Scott passed away after a bout with cancer and the company he helped turn into a behemoth beginning in the mid-90s honored Scott on multiple platforms on Thursday. A proud alum of UNC, Scott spent 28 years in broadcasting before he passed in 2015.

3 years ago, Stuart Scott died at the age of 49.
