Susan Scott, Stuart Scott’s older sister, described her younger brother as a role model who loved his alma mater, North Carolina.
She said when he was 14, he would cry when the Tar Heel’s basketball team would lose.
Stuart Scott was posthumously inducted into the N.C. Journalism Hall of Fame at UNC Friday. About 100 people attended the event, including his two daughters, parents and sister.
“As a man who dedicated his professional life and energies to journalism and sports, this is a pretty phenomenal feat,” Susan Scott said. “His induction further validates Stuart’s impact within the sports industry, broader media and all the fans.
