King of missed layups, but always will have a place in my heart.

Is he really the "king" of missed lay-ups. DayJack was a hard-working guy, and as a senior, a pretty solid team leader. However, he overthought almost all his layups -- he'd switch hands in the air, try to lean in to a body but miss, go for the reverse instead of the simple play, and still get blocked. Because, yes, I'm describing just one layup from the King.

All I have to say is the DayJack seemed like an awesome dude Saturday. He came to the pre-game tailgate and even bought 3 NorCal Club t-shirts. He hung out with us at halftime at the game and even invited us down to his seats behind the bench (which we quickly got kicked out of). And lastly, he was great to hang with at the bar after the game.

The greatest thing about "Ham-n-Egger" was that it was Bill Raftery's exact call after "DayJack" missed a dunk against God knows-who. Raftery has always been a "friend of Georgetown" and he was incredulous that a John Thompson II player would miss a free basket. He was like"eww...Jackson a real ham-n-egger here and no reason for it...." What a long strange trip it's been...
