I too want to thank the whole team and especially the seniors. Those guys have made the last two seasons so much fun and worth putting up with the seasons where they were perfecting their games. I fully believe those men would be in the elite eight had they not had to face UNC at this point. But they can be so proud of what they accomplished. Even tonight, holding a player like Hansbrough 0 for in the first half, is incredible and if it weren't for bad timing for a poor shooting night, who knows what the final score might have been.
I'm already looking forward to next year but, Derrick, Kyle, Robbie, and Jeremy, thank you so much for the memories. I will so miss watching you all play for our beloved Cougs. I wish you all the best.
I also want to say that Taylor's sacrifice, although apparently not financially a big deal for his family, is the greatest gesture by a single player and his family that I have ever seen. When I first heard about it my jaw dropped. And now every time I hear or read about it, it just gives me goose bumps. With heart like that, the talent coming back, and the coaching talents of Tony, I'm convinced we'll be dancing again next year.
Thank you to the entire team and staff for your class and hard work. Go Cougs!!!!
