Among many legendary episodes from the life and career of men's basketball coach Dean Smith, few loom as large as his recruitment of Charlie Scott, the first African American scholarship athlete at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Drawn together by college basketball in a time of momentous change, Smith and Scott helped transform a university, a community, and the racial landscape of sports in the South.

I truly enjoyed reading this book as a Carolina fan! I never knew the history of Charlie Scott, and it was fascinating to hear how much of a pivotal role Coach Smith played in integrating the basketball program.
