So I Put The Pieces Of This Puzzle Together, But Im Still Thinking About Dean Smith. When Smith Took
So I put the pieces of this puzzle together, but I’m still thinking about Dean Smith. When Smith took over as head coach, the Chancellor of the university told him that running a “clean program” was more important than wins or losses. Even so, Dean’s only losing season was his first.
Of course, Dean Smith was an alumnus of the University of Kansas. One of his UNC players, who would go on to coach the UNC program from 2003 to 2021, was head coach at Kansas for many years before that. These are the ties that bind, I guess.
Listen I know I’ve been on my “Kansas Fan Jason Sudeikis” soapbox but I NEED everyone to know that “play smart, play hard, play together” was coined by the late Dean Smith, who coached basketball at UNC-Chapel Hill for 36 years. He was an absolute legend who cemented the legacy of the Carolina Basketball program as more than a winning team (Smith won 879 games in his career) but a “Carolina Family.” And I just wanted y’all to know.

i love other zelda games especially totk but no video game intro will ever beat the beginning of botw for me. like. you wake up. you as the player know you’re link but link doesn’t know he’s link. the shrine of resurrection is so quiet and serene. there’s a gentle voice guiding you. you don’t know who it is. the door opens and the sun shines in from outside and you already know for sure that this place has not seen the sunlight for decades. you walk out into a world you don’t know. this is the first time you cannot name the main character. there is voice acting. what the fuck are you in for
