Dick Vitale writes "Kris Jenkins will be a hero to Villanova fans forever. His game-winning jump shot at the buzzer was the greatest shot in the history of the NCAA Tournament".
Dick Weiss mentions Phil Martelli giving his Big 5 COY Trophy to Jay and seconded the notion on Jenkins' jumper saying "this was the most dramatic finish I can remember in my 44 years of covering the NCAA Tournament Championship game"
