Comments from ISU's SID

I thought this terrific post from ISU's Sports Information Director deserved it's thread, because it got buried in the game thread. A huge thanks to ISU SID for an extremely classy post!

I've seen a lot of basketball in my time, but Anthony Johnson's second half performance is one of the greatest clutch jobs of putting a team on a player's back and carrying them to a win I've ever seen, and then to do it in a championship game makes it even more special.

I always enjoy watching great players from both my own school as well as other conference teams, but I remember thinking in 2003 that I hoped Idaho State fans understood what they got to watch when Jared Allen was playing over his final two seasons, or in 2007 and 2008 with Natalie Doma and Andrea Lightfoot. I hope you guys and gals all realize what you got to watch in Johnson, and to even a greater extent, Marc Mariani ... two guys about as clutch as they come.

Enjoy your trip to the tournament...my office is working the Spokane Regional, so hopefully I will get to see your guys there...

ISU FANS:

That is one of the class posts I have seen out of ISU in years. Your program is headed in the right direction under this guy with his attitude.
