It's a new day in college basketball.
Mr. Ware will be with us but a single season.
How nice it has been for this fan to watch him blossom.
I've only "seen" one post-game interview with the young man. He was polite. He had a "team" mindset and demeanor about him. He just represented himself, his family, his team and university well. He did in fact strike me as a "humble beast" (as one of his tattoos appears to read).
In a different day*, where a young man would spend three or four years in the program...I could see him as one of the "Hoosiers of lore"...the names we bring up all the time as representing our school/program and being a real 'great' among all the great talent we've seen on this campus.
*I remember seeing Calbert play his first game...I looked over at my dad and said "we get to watch him for four years!"...we don't get to do that with Mr. Ware.
