Dean Smith fund gets $5,000 on Roy Williams bid as John Thompson honored
Posted Nov 11, 2015
All net proceeds from the dinner and a special memorabilia auction will benefit the Dean E. Smith Opening Doors Fund, which provides financial assistance for undergraduate students from low-income families and enables professionals in education and social work to pursue advanced degrees. The bidding turned out to be lively, with tickets to the Duke-Carolina game going for thousands of dollars and Roy Williams bidding $5,000 for golf at Pinehurst No. 2.
