The Arizona State Sun Devil men’s basketball team lost to Florida last night in the 3rd round of the NIT to the Florida Gators and thus ends their season. I want to congratulate the players and coaches for an excellent season. The success the team had this year far exceeded almost everyone’s expectations, and regardless of how the tournament selection process ended, I think they were the best college basketball team in the state of Arizona. The team’s performance in the NIT did nothing to detract me from that thinking.
I’m really looking forward to next year. As an aside, you have to really be happy to be a Sun Devil fan right now. The baseball team is #1 in the nation, the football team went to a bowl game, and the basketball team was in post season play. Not to mention track & field, women’s basketball, it’s just a great time to be a Sun Devil fan. Clearly, Arizona State University athletic director Lisa Love is doing something right in Tempe. Fork ‘em Devils!

Maybe they could let the Cardinals borrow their football players?
