The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill lost one of their own in Stuart Scott. On Sunday, Scott died after a long battle with cancer. Throughout the day, everyone from his colleagues, past and present, to athletes took the time to remember the incomparable ESPN anchor. For tonight's game against Notre Dame, his alma mater honored Stu.

The jerseys featured a black circle patch with "STU" in Carolina blue.
