LOVED this story from Andy Katz...
USA Select Team Rewards Upper Classmen (http://espn.go.com/mens-college-basketball/blog/_/name/katz_andy/id/5364358)
Is anyone else not shocked by this? Apparently K pushed some years ago for the Select team to feature only upperclassmen. I LOVE this... absolutely love it. Not only does it give older guys who have really "stuck it out" a chance to shine and be seen on a bigger stage, but in a bigger way it really speaks highly of K's loyalty to the game as a whole and what makes the game great... namely, those older players who grow and develop and embody programs like very few one-and-dones can do.
I absolutely loved this story... it just seemed like a very "K" thing to do.
