Official UNC Tar Heels Thread

Dean had a direct line to Naismith through phog Allen. Basically I look at dean as the bridge between basketball origins and the new age. He even supported players leaving early as long as they thought they were ready. He truly wanted people to succeed in life not just sports.

Can't put a price on that kind of character.

yeah i realize it sounds like i am a homer but whatever

dean also coached a good 15 years when a) the only way to make the tourney was to win the conference tourney and b) ucla had a run of which we will never see again. any other era of the last 30 years and he has more than 2. hell he woulda won the 98 title going away but he retired instead of hanging on just to win a title (and he intentionally retired late so his good friend coach gut would be guaranteed the job)

dean gave us the scramble d, four corners (which influenced shot clock implementation), huddling at the free throw line, pointing at the assist man and countless other things. college basketball is unrecognizable with no dean. dean laid the foundation for the coach k's and roy's of the world and they will tell you the exact same thing

he integrated the acc, pushed for social progress and refused to take credit for any of it.

there will be a hundred more coach k's before there is another dean smith. the goat

The Martin twins are transferring. I just saw them dudes yesterday while I was hooping at NC State.
This dude Gott loses more players than he brings in and NC State gave him an extension this year

NC State, the gift that keeps on giving

 

[Skooby]

Reminds me of when the Wear twins transferred.

gott sells these dreams to guys and then they realize how terrible he is as a coach, how little he does for pro development and how laughable nc state is as a program

the martins, kyle washington, purvis, tyler lewis all in a matter of 3 years

 

[Tobias]

that reminds me lol at state fans who were arguing that they got the better pg with that daywalker tyler lewis when him and marcus came into school at the same time

they literally thought this dude was better than marcus freaking paige hahahahahahaha

The irony is the kid wanted an offer from UNC but they were like nah....He and his dad were huge Tar Heel fans
Rumor is Abu may go pro and another player may transfer. Just rumors

I don't think he will get drafted. He would be the man next year. Should go back and work on a jumper and develop a handle.

It isn't homering, it's the truth. And almost 97% of his players graduated.

And after he passed he gave checks out to all his lettermen telling them how much he appreciated them and told them to enjoy a nice dinner on him. C'mon man, hollywood couldn't even make that up. Watch some other coaches try to copy that too, smh.
