from The Daily Dad
In 1982-83, Jim Valvano coached the North Carolina State basketball team to a National Championship title.

Even when his guys didn’t.✉️ Sign up for the Daily Dad email: DailyDad.com📱 Follow Daily Dad: Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, YouTubeSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
