Great article Mike. I was there!
I’m jealous! Here’s my story on how I watched it.

I was in college at the time. Watched in my dorm room. I had friends come to watch me watch the game because of how animated I got during. I also was extremely superstitious. My feet kept getting hot so I’d take my socks off, then Kansas would make a run so I’d put them back on. Syracuse would make a run. My feet would get hot again, off they’d come. Kansas would make a run. I was convinced that’s what mattered. Kept them on for the final few minutes, including during the Warrick block. So… you’re welcome.

Watching the video that’s with the article reminded me just how unbelievably advanced Carmelo was as a freshman. He made one-on-one moves none of the top guys in college today can even dream of doing.

Mike, we might need you to keep your socks on for all of next season! Maybe we can make a run back to the Sweet Sixteen or further. You can take them off again once the season is over.
