OMG... I don't even know what to say! As Bill Self said, this couldn't have been written better..
KU last won the national championship 20 years ago with Danny and the Miracles. Danny is now a KU assistant coach. We beat UNC, where our former coach, now coaches. We beat Memphis, the big, bad only one loss team, in overtime. We were the underdogs. A last minute 3-point shot took us into overtime. Half of our players had tragic events happen in their personal lives, such as family members shot to death, etc... To top it off, even our football team did super well this year. It's just amazing. It's amazing! I can't believe it. I was shaking and I could FEEL my heart beating.
I just can't get over it. My friend Erin called weeping. My friend Jackie called so excited for me as well. My friend Cherie and I texted. My sister texted. A friend of mine, LCM, was at the game and texted me from there! It was simply an amazing night. I think I appreciate this more than I would have when I was in school b/c it would have been a party then. Now it's just awesome. Finally, the "One Shining Moment" song included tons of clips of the Jayhawks!! It was spectacular.
I need to get my T-shirt! This just is hard to believe for me. I can now officially squelch all of the KU haters who have said stupid things forever like, "KU can't quite finish it" or "KU sucks".. Whatever, we've always been a great team and I think people are always jealous of winners. Therefore, the haters can offically SHUT UP for a while...
No more negativity. We had an awesome win for an awesome team!!
