Hank Aaron on Dean Smith and the pursuit of records (Greensboro News & Record, 1995)


Monday night, on an island in the Pacific, began the stretch run at the all-time college basketball record that Adolph Rupp took to his grave. A long way away in Atlanta, Hank Aaron was settling in for a relaxing evening at home, aware that he and Smith now have a lot in common. Aaron understands what perhaps lies ahead for Smith.
