Anyone have an image of Quin wearing the net with a huge smile on his face? I cannot seem to find one.

I did find this image, which I used as our logo on Soundcloud for this week's episode.

Update: approximately 10 hours after we recorded, I have arrived home. I was in the car for the podcast and all but about 30 minutes of the time since. I am quite tired.

Happy Final Four week, everybody.

Here is the image Sam talked about in the podcast of Quin putting his head on Nate James' chest. So much love among these guys...

Someone on the podcast made a comment about guys making a big leap during their senior campaign. Here's two in addition to Quinn that come to mind -

Quinn Cook - Scoring improved from 11.6 to 15.5, 3pt% from .371 to.401 and team record from 26-9 (1st rd exit) to 33-4 (SO FAR!!).

Brian Zoubek - Minutes jumped from 427 to 746, rebounds jumped from .311 per minute to .414 (couldnt find reb% for jr season) and team went from 30-7/Sw16 exit) to 35-5 and a title.

Alaa Abdelnaby - Minutes jumped from 531 to 947, scoring from 8.9 to 15.1, rebounds from 3.8 to 6.6. The team result was relatively stable - 28-8 to 29-9.

Anyone else come to mind?

I was definitely having a celebratory drink last night during the podcast. Also, today is officially laundry day so that I can wash all my Duke clothes so they can be worn all week, including a hopeful trip to The Annapolis since I likely can't go to IN-dianapolis. The DC haters are just gonna have to...

Late in the podcast, I brought up Chris Carrawell. Scoring jumped from 9.9 ppg to 16.9 ppg. Minutes went from 28.6 to 35.6. Field goal attempts increased from 317 to 422. Rebounds from 4.8 to 6.1. He went from being a complimentary player on the amazing 1999 team to the unquestioned leader of the 2000 team. He went from the 4th or 5th option on offense to the offensive leader and ACC Player of the Year.

Quin may not have been ACC POY, but going from a guy who didn't make any of the All-ACC teams to a 2nd team All-American is a pretty big senior year leap.

Dude, you cannot wash a winning shirt with good mojo juice on it. You might wash the mojo right out of it!

I was wearing my 2010 National Champs T-shirt for the Sweet 16 and Great 8 games and you can be darn well sure I will be wearing it again for the Final Four. Is it stanky at this point? Yes, quite so. Am I going to risk washing it?

Hell no!!!!!

Haha, my mojo in the Final Four is not the shirt...it's the hat. The 2010 National Champs hat, to be exact. In 2004, I failed to go to the Final Four with my 2001 National Champs visor, and I totally forget what happened next. In 2010, I learned my lesson. The visor was on for both games. And we all know what happened there. I retired the 2001 visor and got the 2010 hat knowing that the next time we made the Final Four, the hat takes center stage. And, here we are.

I've also worn a different jersey/shirt for each game of the tournament so far, so the mojo has been clean shirts and jerseys. So, in essence, the mojo will be maintained!

Ladies and gentlemen, while casually going through iTunes today, I discovered something I cannot believe...

The DBR Podcast is now the #6 College & High School Sports podcast on iTunes! And #138 in overall Sports!

I know I speak for Dev11 and JasonEvans when I say thank you so much for listening in! We never in a million years thought we would reach these levels so quickly. All we were trying to do was overtake the Carolina podcasts. Thanks to all of you, we're closing in on that top spot!

I think someone washed an "n" off one of your shirts or something. :rolleyes:

Echoing blazindw, thanks to all who listen to us and give feedback. It's been a very cool project to work on over these last few months, and hopefully we have two more happy game recaps to go before we launch into the offseason with some cool guests.

There's still room on the bandwagon, so hop on!

I totally forget whether I was standing next to you during that forgotten debacle and I definitely don't remember any UCon(n) fans with "Duck Fuke" t-shirts.

Get that mojo going.

Juise, it's like it never happened. 2001 and 2010 happened though. And hopefully, it'll happen again this year!
