Man I haven't been that stressed in a while. Still got goosebumps from that game.

The person running the scoreboard / timeclock needs lessons on the start button.

The person running the scoreboard / timeclock needs lessons on the start button. True and do refs get OT pay? That last one on Sheehy was ridiculous.

Ted Valentine has always sucked. I'd say that clock guy will be picking up his last check Friday. At least he should be.

Nix should have had a flagrant foul on him NO DOUBT.

Maybe someone should tell Valentine Knight isn't at Indiana anymore.

Bad calls both ways, but luckily the refs didn't entirely ruin a great game.

Set it to record as we were going out with our son and daughter-in-law to celebrate out 48th anniversary.
Got a few score updates from the kid off his phone (do they even still call those things a phone? Mobile device? Pocket computer?) as the game drew short, then discovered it was on live as we passed the bar area on the way to the exit at the Red Lobster, so we stood and watched the last 20 seconds or so on the way to the door.
Didn't have the energy to stay up and watch it after we got home, already knowing the outcome, but will probably skip through and catch it today. May leave the sound muted.... can't stand Dick Vitale's commentary. He might be a prince of a fellow and a good Republican for all I know about him personally, just never could stand his commentary even when I could make it out, and between his enunciation getting worse and my hearing matching his declining speaking skill, it's a completely lost cause now.
Was a Bobby fan long ago, then less and less as the vulgarities, the disrespect for authority and anyone else's opinions, the game and fish violations, and the interview debacles that turned into embarassments for the university and all but the most diehard fans, finally made it a relief when the U finally sent him away. Still admire his abilities as a coach, but Gene Keady at Purdue and Coach K at Duke accomplished similar successes without the behavioral tendencies of a spoiled teen needing a trip to the woodshed.
I like Crean, so far. The team attitudes seem healthy, and he's apparently quite capable of recruiting and developing talent without the personalty conflict battles that marked the Knight years. The team seems to be a real good bunch of guys who are enjoying playing together and it's fun to watch them succeed.

Russ I agree with you that BK became an embarrassment to the school. Great coach, did lots of good things but started to think he was bigger than the school.
Crean appears to be the perfect fit and wish my dear friend who passed away during the Sampson era and refused to watch them could see them now.
