Looking back on what John Chaney meant to Philadelphia, an Inquirer photographer's 2006 interview with the legendary Temple basketball coach reveals Chaney's wisdom. "It was basically a sermon on life in many ways," said Charles Fox. On the day legendary college basketball coach John Chaney passed away, Fox, a staff photographer with The Philadelphia Inquirer, said he immediately started going back into his personal archives to pull photographs. He re-discovered an audio recorded interview with Chaney, in which the coach talks about his upbringing in Florida and then Philadelphia, as well as Jackie Robinson's influence on sports.
