It's hard for me not to count that 2010-11 team as my favorite. After all the uncertainty following Lute's departure - including almost hiring Tim Floyd - we had a legitimate top 20 team and a long-term coach. That team was so scrappy and hard-nosed. Parrom, Williams, Momo, Fogg, Hill, 6'7" Perry as our starting center. Just a bunch of guys who had no business being that good. Still think we win it all if Horne hits that three against UConn.

Absolutely. That shot still haunts me. I already had final four tickets. Since Butler and UConn lack fanbases, I couldn't resell them...and attended the worst national title game in the history of college basketball.

Pretty much the greatest game I ever witnessed at McKale

That would have been Henri tonight had Tommy not went with Townsend, the "Ira Lee" of this team. A true shame too. He is going to be helpful to get past real Mid Majors because that is his absolute ceiling.

Del Orso is becoming an actual Catch and Shoot threat that is playable throughout normal games.
