Haven't seen anyone post a link to this article yet. Nice, yet typical, article about JTII learning from JTII and Carrill, two hall of famers...still a good read nonetheless: msn.foxsports.com/cbk/story/5433274

From Walk on to Berth in Sweet 16 www.al.com/sports/birminghamnews/index.ssf?/base/sports/1143195990102770.xml&coll=2The Birmingham News decides to jump on the Jon Wallace story after The H'ville Times beat them to the punch. Gotta try to make hoops seem relevant to a football-mad state somehow, I guess. Pretty good article anyway. Some choice quotes: "I live in Harvest, where it's real rural," Wallace said. "Coming to the city was tough. Just finding authentic Alabama barbecue is hard." Tell me about it. Ain't no Dreamland anywhere near DC. He has also made some of his teammates comfortable with life the way he knows it. George town's Jeff Green and Tyler Crawford visited him in Alabama last summer and got a quick lesson in the bovine industry.
"They had cows confused with lions. They kept looking at them like they were going to attack," Wallace said.
Why, Timmy, if that cow had the chance, he'd eat you and your entire family! "Coach Thompson takes you under his wing and teaches you the game. Then he breaks it down step by step," Wallace said.
"And he expects us to win."
Thank God for JTIII

Alternatively, we have ol' Jim Boeheim, that paragon of class, "going out on a limb" and picking Florida: www.gatorcountry.org/watbhoops/?p=227Boeheim: “It’s two good teams, and it’s going to be a great game. If I had to go out on a limb, I would give Florida a slight edge because they have so many big guys they can throw at you.”Personally, if I had to go out on a limb, my friend scoreboard and I would probably give the edge to Texas A&M over Syracuse.
