Whatever happens this season, I'm okay with because of the magic of last season. You can never take Maui and this man away from us

No shame, I'm still basking in the glow. Watched every minute of every game last year, even the Maui despite being on vacation in Tahoe with my in-laws. (FIL is a big sports guy, he understood.)

When I saw that breakaway dunk and the other players do the synchronized hop, followed by this legend, I knew it was going to be a special season.

Fast-forward, I booked my flight and hotel to the Final Four before the B10 tourney had even started. There was no doubt Purdue would be there.

Obviously the championship game wasn't what I hoped for, but man what a season.

What's wild is they were so synced you couldn't even see it from the front. 

You missed a great time in Maui. That's my wife in the background behind the guy. I'm not in this particular version of the gif very prominently but I'm just off to the left.

Nice! I'm sure it was an awesome time!

I'm in San Diego so you better believe I made it to the Rady's Invitational this year. Watched the Boilers seventh row center court in an arena that only seats about 1000.

That Colvin last second bucket against Ole Miss was a fun one.
