Jimmy F'n Butler
« on: January 19, 2017, 06:36:37 PM »
I still shake my head at the thought that in a few short years, this guy has gone from a quiet kid at Marquette to an NBA All-Star starter.  A remarkable trajectory that no one affiliated with MU could have predicted.  Let's give a standing ovation to JFB!

It's so great.  So great.  The guy came from nothing and got to the top of his profession.  When he entered games as a Sophomore I remember thinking, he could be a solid role player but I don't think I want him being the leader.  Then he started knocking down FTs, then the next year game winners, then it was the Sweet 16.  What an incredible rise.

I love that video. So great to see the guys from that very likable team again. It's amazing how Jimmy has built himself up physically, in addition to his ridiculous development as a player.
