"This ex-Connecticut Yankee grew up reciting the required catechism for all New Englanders: 'Here's to dear old Boston, land of the bean and the cod, where Cabots speak only to Lodges and Loges speak only to God.' After moving to Carolina, this born-again Tar Heel quickly changed regional loyalties: 'Here's to dear ol' Dean Smith, a man beyond reproach. When heaven gets its first basketball team, Dean Smith will be the first coach.”
Chuck Stone, School of Journalism and Mass Communication
