Join Wiley Cash for a conversation with Eric “Sleepy” Floyd, a man who Coach John Thompson wrote about as being “such a phenomenal scorer, if he missed shots, he thought it was the rims and not him.” Cash and Floyd will discuss what it was like to play under Coach John Thompson as the Georgetown basketball was on the rise, what it was like to face hometown rival James Worthy and UNC in the National Championship in 1982, and what Coach Thompson’s mentorship meant to him both during and after his fourteen-year NBA career. OLL Manheim Room on the campus of UNC-Asheville. This event is part of the Fall 2023 Common Word Community Read. For more information click here.
