My heart was broken this morning when I learned via Under the Dome that coach Dean Smith, a man I’ve long admired, will be hob-knobbing with John Edwards. I will always respect and admire our coach, despite this guilt by association. Still it’s disappointing. Next thing you know I’ll learn that Mike Krzyzewski is a libertarian. What will I do then? (Go Tar Heels.)
Actually Coach K is a Republican.
He took a lot of heat a few years ago when he came out publicly to support Elizabeth Dole in her Senate run.
