Furman coach Bob Richey was standing on the Smith Center court about an hour before Tuesday's game against North Carolina when he made a very simple observation.
Richey is not just the Furman head coach. He's also a two-time former Carolina basketball camper, a veteran of the Granville Towers dorms who remembers watching Jerry Stackhouse take on all comers on the Granville court. Richey's counselor was Jeff McInnis. Rasheed Wallace was around.
It was a pretty incredible time to be a Tar Heel…or a Tar Heel basketball camper.
