FORMER SUMMIT LEAGUE COACHES

I find it very interesting that the projected #1 seed in the East, San Diego State University, now has 2 losses. And both have come from former coaches in South Dakota. Craig Smiths Utah State team knocked off the Aztecs last night in the Mountain West finals when Sam Merrill hit a 3 with 2.6 seconds left. And earlier, former SDSU coach TJ Otzelberger gave them their first loss of the year on the Aztecs home floor. Both guys are quality coaches.

Congrats to Craig for getting the MWC auto bid. What a great job he did shutting down the former #1 ranked team. It was fun to watch.

Earlier yesterday I was wondering how long it would be until a power conference team comes calling for Smith. That huge upset is only going to help. We were so fortunate to have him come through USD.

Craig Smith may have forever changed the trajectory of our basketball program. I will always cheer for that guy.
