Read Dean Smith's recruiting letter to Michael Jordan from 1980 (Photo)


The world lost one of the greatest coaches in college basketball history Saturday, as former North Carolina coach Dean Smith passed away at 83.
During his 36-year career at UNC, Smith’s most famous pupil was Michael Jordan. The future Chicago Bulls legend played under Smith from 1981-1984, leading the Tar Heels to a title in 1982, earning All-American honors twice (1984, 1984) and being named Player of the Year in 1984.
In the remembrance of Smith, his recruiting letter to Jordan from 1980 has re-surfaced.
