Tell you what, though, they better win tomorrow night. The Suggs shot will be remembered forever, but if Baylor grinds them into dust tomorrow night, there might be questions about whether they could ever get it done. How would the Christian Laettner shot have been remembered if the Fab Five beat Duke that year? It took UConn 10 years before they won their first (they ended the original 1999 Gonzaga run on the way). It took Coach K 11 years. Roy Williams needed 17 years and a change of schools. Gonzaga's now on 23 years.
If Mark Few has a Herb Brooks "if you lose, you'll take it to your $#$% grave" speech in him, he may want to use it. Of course, I've never been and probably never will be a coach, so take it with a grain of salt.
