Yep, it was all on the tube.  Hard to miss.

I love how engaged Elliott was during that timeout.  Not typical of a freshman by any means.

Little easier when you're drinking and pacing around the room.

I was kinda waiting for this to pop up and it's something that I think hasn't been discussed much since Saturday.  Watch Wojo and the team closely in all the time following the M2N injury.  I think the demeanor and body language speak volumes.  Immediately after the injury, Wojo is literally pounding the chests of Heldt and Theo.  And he's clearly challenging each and every player to stand up like men if they want this.  Moments later he takes his T, not because he's mad about a particular call it seemed to me, but in a classic 'wake the eff up' approach.  In the second half, we actually hear him talking about winning the last 4 minute segment and telling his players it's zero/zero now.  With 90 seconds to go, he draws up an effective iso play for Sacar.  'I'll make it coach.'  And one last thing.  In the very last timeout with 6 seconds, Wojo steps aside with all his coaches for several seconds and the entire team gathers around Rowsey.  And you can clearly tell AR is reminding everyone about their assignments and to r-e-l-a-x and not do something stupid.  He had 100% attention. 

I think I saw a coach and a team grow up a little.  Now it may not salvage the season but I liked every moment of that.
The entire scene at the end in Omaha was a huge endorsement of why Big East basketball is on an up trend. The large crowd going crazy and both teams fight and scrapping hard to the end.
Winning is overrated. The only time it is really important is in surgery and war.

I may have missed this, but were you at the game? Or was all this evident from the TV broadcast? If the latter, I need to go back and rewatch.

Just on TV.  We had considered going earlier in the year but opted out.  I would have never picked it up had I watched the game live.  But we knew the result as we watched on Sunday and were therefore able to 'scout'.

Ageed.  Loved how he interacted with everyone including retrieving Rowsey when he walked back on the court as the officials were checking the clock and there was a delay.  He also knew when it was time to be quiet and listen to the Senior.  All good.

You don't think it's a huge endorsement of wojo? Shocking!  ::)
