In my exploits of looking up info on college basketball today…

….I came across this: http://sports.espn.go.com/espnmag/story?id=4557758

It’s a link to a column story about a man.  It would be enough to say that this man was a great coach, who coached the some of the most incredible college basketball teams that have ever existed.  But you can’t; because aside from being an incredible coach, who extended the game to great lengths, he is also just a really incredible man.  I’ve looked up to him since I knew what college basketball was.  It’s a good article with some new tid-bits of info injected in.

I’m posting this even though it has nothing to do with Mississippi State basketball; I’m posting it just simply because this is someone that we can all look up too, and it’s a “feel-good” story to start off the season right.
