Guthridge was more than loyal to Dean Smith
Posted May 13, 2015
Roy Williams called Bill Guthridge the “perfect sidekick” for Dean Smith. “The book on loyalty and friendship was written by Coach Guthridge,” Phil Ford said. That’s unavoidably how Guthridge, the former North Carolina basketball coach who died Tuesday night at age 77 after a lengthy illness, will be remembered: for his loyalty, his decency, his quirky sense of humor and the fierce competitive spirit it often hid.
