Kenny Smith: UNC team put the program 'back on the map'

Posted Apr 5, 2016
“Those kids don’t know what they did for the program,” Kenny Smith said. “Because behind the scenes, there was 20 of us that met together for the first time in a long time. Old Tar Heel players came back. They have reunited the alumni basketball program, and they don’t even know it. So you have put us back on the map, North Carolina basketball.” (Carolina Blue)
