I like what our floor leader J.Jack had to say:
We're like the college Detroit Pistons," Jack says. "It's just a team effort all the way around. It's kind of hard to pick out one person or two people. You can look at it as a group of five out there on the court, just going for one goal."
It was a while after the season ended before the players began to grasp the significance of their achievement. Jack was in Charlotte, speaking at an NCAA function, when he talked with former Yellow Jackets coach Bobby Cremins.
"He was saying, 'Thank you,' and 'All the hard work has paid off,' " Jack says. "He appreciated the way we played the game. Just hearing that coming from the older guys made me think that's what you play for right there, being able to win the respect of the people that came before you."
