Vintage uniforms....

Vintage toughness....

Vintage win.

Sole possession of 3rd place in the Big East.

Never felt that we got on track, and we still beat Georgetown comfortably.

This team is special.

Go Pirates.

Turning out to be a really fun season. We have wait for this for 10 years, let's enjoy it.

Great win tonight!!

We out-toughed Georgetown. We almost out-toughed ourselves, by making things more difficult than they had to be. But all's well that ends well.

Great win - type you need to Dance when your core guys aren't having their best night

As another poster indicated, we have been waiting for this for 10 years. Savor and enjoy this season. Regardless of what we think will happen with Isiah and Delgado after this year -- and we know there is a chance one or both turn pro - it will be worth it if we are finally playing meaningful games in March. This is a team that SHOULD not only dance but has a chance to win games because of our guard play, defense and ability to win a variety of ways. Show up and appreciate this grou.

dehere -- good post, but we have been waiting for this season for 20 years--not 10.

Whats scary is we lost some composure for a little stretch there late, yet we maintained our lead the entire way, mainly because of how good our D was. I think we had 3 or 4 offensive possessions in a row around the 7 minute mark that nobody knew what was going on. Great win. It's so much more fun to go through some learning experiences while winning at the same time.

I get that. I thoroughly enjoyed 03-04, with Andre and beating Zona in the first round of the tourney. You give me 21 wins and a first round victory (with a loss to that followed by a final 4 team), and I'm taking that most years. Obviously we ultimately want to strive for a bit more, but perspective is important.
