Just watched the 30 minute segment of Christian Watford’s shot on B1G channel. It never gets old. Goes in every time. What is borderline pathetic is the segment moved me to tears.
I recently traveled back to Indiana to see family just as we have done every summer for the past 22 years since graduating from IU and moving out of the state. This last trip was a little special as I took my rising HS senior daughter to Bloomington to tour the campus. While I would put it at less than a 1% chance she goes to IU, I am holding out hope a la Dumb and Dumber “so you say there’s a chance”. Regardless, at the end of the campus tour, we ate at Nicks and while we were waiting on our food to come out, I showed her the video of what transpired at Nicks after the Watshot. She and I just watched the segment together and tears are running down my face. No doubt the shot going down and the memory of that game is still fresh, but emotionally preparing for her to go off to college next year probably had a little to do with the tears. Anyway, I am always emotional over IU BB. Hoping this season the tears flow due to victories! Go IU!
