Sean Woods Remembers

“It's OK to lose, but if you can look in the mirror and say 'I gave it everything I had', then that's the best thing you can ask of yourself,” -- Sean Woods, Director of Basketball Operations at TCU

As some of us remember that 1992 game between Duke and Kentucky and the unbelievable shot with just seconds left that went in by that hands of Christian Laettner at the free throw line, there's one guy today who at least is thinking of a different shot in that game which coulda, woulda, should've been the game winning shot.

I am of course speaking of Sean Woods who talks about the end of the game 15 years later in an article called Shooting Into the Past written by Tim Bella at Daily Skiff.com, an online magazine serving Texas Christian University.

According to Woods, it was miscommunication on defense between John Pelphrey and Deron Feldhaus that gave Laettner “a better shot than what he thought he was about to get.”

“The only down thing is that it's considered the greatest game in college basketball, but (we) lost it,” Woods said.

And that's the feeling we Kentucky fans have too.
