UCLA Will Soon Find a Few Patsies of Its Own
Walt Hazzard’s comments about Dean Smith trying to pay back UCLA for what Wooden did to North Carolina in years past merely reflects Hazzard’s preoccupations, not reality. UCLA only played North Carolina once during Wooden’s tenure, for the 1968 national championship. One game engenders animosity only in petty people like Hazzard. Perhaps that is one reason Scott Williams decided to choose North Carolina.
