Reading these articles, especially the SI article and the Matt Norlander CBS article, absolutely brings tears to the eyes. Talk about old times. The return to the national limelight has been well-nigh instant -- the "buy-in" to Hurley and the UConn resurgence immediate. The impact on recruiting will be huge, especially if the boys can keep it together tonight against Iowa.
