Chansky’s Notebook: Catching The Dean

Posted Nov 11, 2019
The Roy Williams-Dean Smith victory chase is officially on. Dean Smith retired after winning 879 games. Williams has 873 wins after his 17th Tar Heel team defeated Notre Dame and UNCW in its first two games. Ol’ Roy needs seven more to reach 880 and break Smith’s mark, but the schedule gets pretty tough in late November and early December. (Chapelboro.com)
