sad shite, RIP
Their one shining moment, made famous when a Fab Fiver from Michigan turned forgetful in the final seconds of the championship game, is now bittersweet and ironic 20 years later because their coach can't remember any of it -- not even their names.
Not now. Not anymore. Not ever again.
On that North Carolina 1993 national championship team, Derrick Phelps learned the value of sacrifice from his coach. George Lynch picked up leadership skills. Eric Montross, a Paul Bunyonesque center, became an All-American. Those players, along with others on the squad, have all paid visits to their former mentor who still keeps an office on the Chapel Hill campus. They've reintroduced themselves, hoping for a sign, maybe an acknowledging nod from the man who changed their lives.
Instead, Dean Smith will give the same introductory smile he offers to strangers -- because in Smith's world, that's what most people have become. He has no recollection of coaching that 1993 team to a 34-4 record, or Chris Webber's timeout, or anything associated with his final and most unexpected NCAA championship, or any other Tar Heels season, for that matter.
