Born in '56. No ties to the Cuse other than taking my first job in a NE territory and settling in BVille...for one year before moving away. I was a hoops junkie with a respect for John Wooden but when I saw how the fans responded to the Cuse (this was early in JB's career) I adopted them hook, line and sinker. The fans fully supported the team win or lose...never a criticism, only undying support- very infectious. Now that expectations are so high that has changed a tad. Then when Stevie and Sherm were making phenomenal alley oops and Pearl and, well it sorta  became a religion. Take my kids to a game or three every year (DePaul and PC this year)- coming up from the CT shoreline. Don't miss a second of any game and will go crazy searching for the game if it's not on in the usual places.
 
Guess the best memories are of those Sherm to Stevie passes, Pearl taking over, the wars against G-town (and when I and some friends beat some G-town walk ons in a game when I lived in DC), the emergence of Allen Griffen, all 0f 2003, John Wallace putting the team on his back (and that shot), the agony of seeing AO go down and our championship hopes with it, too many to list.
