Big Ups to Boeheim for Giving Billy Edelin his flowers. Billy won them two games in the tournament by himself. Manhattan and Oklahoma State! He was the real deal!
Gerry McNamara won the National Championship game vs. Kansas with his pinpoint shooting beyond the arc to start the game. Without that cushion, Kansas would have won in the end. No disrespect to Carmelo Anthony, but all respect to McNamara. He has paid his dues, and he should be our next head coach.
G Mac put our CUSE squad out to a hot start that game, Warrick ended it with arguably the single greatest play in NCAA National Championship Game history 🏀
+35yr Kansas Jayhawks fan who's said SAME THING bout McNamara last 20yrs. He won that gm b4 Halftime. Cuse was up 18 late 1stHalf. KU had deficit dwn to just 3pts with 17mins left 2ndHalf. Gotta give young Cuse dues. Theu could've EASILY folded. (* Yes Kansas missed a shitton Free Throws. But we missed Soph PF Wayne Simien more than we missed those Free Throws. 16ppg/9rpg.)
Gerry's youngest son wearing Cuse jersey reminds me of Buddy and Jimmy in 2003. Congrats to both Hakim and GMac! As well to the entire roster of the 2003 Championship team! GO CUSE!
Best day of the season followed by the worst day of the season...retiring jersey numbers and then retiring head coach Ah the ups and downs of being a sports fan
I was a KU fan at that Nov 2008 gm in Kansas City vs Cuse. Self just doesn't foul up3 with under 7secs. Johnny Flynn made KU pay for that. Hit beyond NBA range 3, sent gm OT where Cuse won
