If you told us we would win the BE, the BET, and get to the Final Four back in November and December you would have had some serious doubters. A fantastic run, the rebirth of Hoya dominance. Thanks JTIII, staff, team - and whatever Roy and Jeff decide, thanks for everything.

Agree 100%... I am sure the team and coaches are 10x more disappointed than I am, but I have nothing but thanks for this team! What a great year!!!

FF, you hit the nail on the head. We're all disappointed in the results today but that does not detract from a fantastic run by the Hoyas this year. Kudos to the players and coaches for the season and the pride we all have in you.

It's been an absolutely awesome season. Thanks to the coaches and players for a season full of memories.
We played a pretty bad game, and I hate to lose like that, but such is life.
Roy - you were and absolute beast when you were allowed to play today.
Jeff - we would have never been near the Final Four if it wasn't for you. Thanks!

If you told us we would win the BE, the BET, and get to the Final Four back in November and December you would have had some serious doubters. Imagine if you told us that four years ago. Most of us would have wet ourselves. They didn't play their best game tonight, but they were just a run away from getting back in it. In the end, the clock was our biggest obstacle and that Lighty 3-point play was a killer. Down the stretch, I found myself wondering whether if we cut it to three with a few seconds left, whether Motta would have been smart enough to foul us.

Thanks JTIII, staff, team - and whatever Roy and Jeff decide, thanks for everything. I'd add: if you told the current senior class after we had just finished 13-15 with no (real) postseason that during their time on the Hilltop we'd be BE regular season champs, BET champs, and make the Final Four, you would have been laughed at. I'm glad the senior class got to experience both the ultimate low and ultimate high (well, until next year!), as the former has undoubtedly made them appreciate the latter all that much more. Thank you Hoyas for a great season and memories that will last a lifetime.

Instead of arguing about Esherick we are arguing about whic player under-performed in the National Sem-Final.
All is good in Hoya land!
Thank you, Hoyas!

All I can do is agree: Absolutely outstanding season! Not only can I now mention I'm a Hoya fan to people and get nothing but respect, but it is obvious that even better things are coming down the pike for this program. Fantastic season!

Jahidi, I'll argue about Esherick--far too much of the man in the program's greatest moment since '84---he was on CSTV recapping the '85 game with Steve "Rat Man" Lappas, and the article in NY Times--which was painful to even see on a gameday where Hoyas are back in Final Four. Esherick is Space Language for JINX and he should be BANNED from being written about, seen, or heard from prior to any Hoya game in March/April.
