This team was likeable, just so damn likeable. Darrun Hillard maybe one of my favorite Wildcats of all time. He is the kind of kid some day who will go on to do something great whether in sports or the business world, he will be modest about his achievement and look into a world like starry eyed kid from Bethlehm. I didnt know kids like Darrun existed, kids who just gave it there all, came from being a no name to playing a great basketball game on the biggest stage. Darrun you are a great kid, a great person, I for one will always be proud to have you as a fellow Wildcat!
JVP, had his up and downs in a Wildcat uniform. He had some great perfromances, he had some bad, he made bad decisions, he probably sacrificed more than any Wildcat in the history of the program.
I will remember when JVP got to cut down the last thread in NY, I will remember when Darrun Hillard was getting interviewed by Fox and all he wanted to do was leave the booth and go celebrate with his teammates, I will remember when our 6th man won the MVP and the entire team was about as excited as I have ever seen a team, I will remember how Jay Wright had the largest smile at MSG as he held the trophy and announced us Big East Champoins.
I will remember the joy this team brought us, I will remember it all and I am thankful for it all. Screw the media, screw whatever, you cant take away the joy this team gave us.
Once a Wildcat, Always a Wildcat.
