Posted Sep 25, 2017
Denny Marcin, who died at the age of 75 on Sept. 20, was always good for an entertaining story, a hearty laugh, a pat on the back. He was intense and competitive but could chuckle at himself. Marcin was one of seven coaches who came with Dick Crum from Miami (Ohio) in January 1978 and was one of only two of that group to be in Chapel Hill all 10 of Crum's years. (GoHeels.com)
