Iconic Coach Dean Smith Dead At 83

Never had the pleasure of meeting the man, but after all the stories I've heard both online and from Phil Ford personally(he's a good friend), it gave me a great respect for the man. Phil always talked about him like he was his own father and hearing all the other former players coming out and saying the same, it just deepened that respect. We didn't just lose a great coach yesterday, we lost a great human being. RIP Coach Smith
