I'm just always amazed at the reverence that former players have for Dean Smith. At one game this year, I think it was the Virginia game, they had all of the UNC players who had been elected to the Hall of Fame present (MJ was not yet elected) for a ceremony of recognition. And during the ceremony, everyone deferred to Smith. The players all pointed to him, and I think it was Billy Cunningham who even started bowing to him. Dean, of course, was embarrassed and in "aww shucks" mode. It's impressive how much his players admire him.
