Are we so eager to criticize our former coach that we are willing to attack and discredit our 2nd longest home winning streak? It was a great accomplishment for our program and the players who were on those 2001-2003 teams. Let's not cut off our nose despite our face.

I do know, Newsie is right on you knowing ball.

I didn't realize Mike Deane had even won 20 games total, let alone 20 in a row at home.
Those were bad times...

He was known as Dwight "ice man" Clay.  He hit the jumper from the right corner as time ran out.
The game was played over the holiday break so there was not the usual student attendance at the game.
There was no internet or cable in the old days  and National TV coverage of college basketball was not so great.
I remember waiting for the sports segment of the local NYC news  to in to get the final.
They showed  some game highlights that ended with a clip of the shot by Clay.
The streak was over and I was left with a sick feeling in my stomach.
 

Drove back up for that game, had that same sick feeling.  That game and the "Creighton delay" game were the worst.

Lets hope Saturdays streak doesn't end like Crean's did.
