If you include assistant coaches and former head coaches as alumni, you can mark Tex Winter down for a buttload of them.

Tex isn't an alum though.

Jimmy shows what it takes to win in the Finals .Head, Heart and Hustle. What a performance for the ages.

Jimmy is a damn legend.

Loved him just chirping LeBron who spent the entire 4th qtr whining.

No sweep!   Looking for 45 from LeBron next game.   Also looking for AD to want a little revenge.

Jeez Tower, Jimmy just put a short handed 5 seed team on his back and turned in a performance for the ages and this is all you've got? Why do you hate Marquette?

Jimmy always had the heart of a warrior and Buzz taught him this incredible work ethic. Didn't realize he had this much talent.

Thanks for posting.  That was a really fun run under Buzz.  Those teams were tough.

Big Jimmy fan. Big Buzz fan.

Methinks Jimmy already had a tremendous work ethic before he even met Buzz.
