Those who remained steadfast in their support of coach Jay Wright through the second-round losses the previous two years should take an extra measure of satisfaction in the team's appearance in Houston. It is important, though, to view Villanova as it is, rather than what current perception seems to be making it out to be. The Wildcats are a deep, seasoned team filled with pedigreed recruits who entered with four or five stars next to their names. They are not a ragtag group of spunky overachievers bucking long odds, beating superior programs. Any such thought is not only wrong, it is patronizing. They are back in the Final Four after a six-year absence, which is the fringe of acceptability for Philadelphia's power program. They are not the Little Engine that Could. They're the Big Program that Should. They are a No. 2 seed, the third time in the last three years they were a 1 or 2. They entered the season ranked 11th, never dropped below 17th and spent three weeks at No. 1 late in the season. They entered the Big East Tournament as its top seed and its defending champion. A two-point loss in the title game cost it a No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament. Their Elite Eight "upset" of Kansas, the top overall seed in the NCAA, might not have been considered an upset had the teams met a month ago on a neutral court. They play in a conference better known for its past than its present, but the name has value and they are its class. Wright has adjusted to the realities of a one-and-done NCAA culture. He has nurtured a core group of seniors and juniors and complemented them with sophomores and freshmen. This is a program that routinely should play past the first weekend, and it is situated to do so in the tournament for at least the next two seasons. So, as they bask in their recent achievements the next few days, remember that these Wildcats had every bit as much reason to expect to get to Texas as the Kentucky Wildcats ... or the Jayhawks, or the Tar Heels, or the Sooners, who they face Saturday. Expect them to win that one, too. They expect it. They have all year. Team Feature #2 March 27, 2016 For ‘Ugly’ Game, Villanova Gets Beautiful Reward of Final Four Trip Terry Toohey, Delaware County Daily Times LOUISVILLE, Ky. >> The on-court celebration was long over and the formal media obligations complete. Once he got off the dais, all Ryan Arcidiacono wanted to do was get back to the Villanova locker room as quickly as possible and wrap his arms around the South Regional championship trophy the Wildcats had just won with a stunning 64-59 triumph over Kansas, the No. 1 overall seed in the NCAA Tournament. In a second, it was in his grasp. Arcidiacono cradled the trophy close to his chest like a small child clings to a favorite stuffed animal. He would not let it go. The scene was reminiscent of Scottie Reynolds holding the game ball he used to score the winning basket in the final seconds to lift the Wildcats over Pittsburgh in the 2009 East Regional final in Boston. “I’ll lose in the first two rounds the last two years to get to a Final Four,” Arcidiacono said with a huge smile on his face. All of Villanova’s past shortcomings in the NCAA Tournament — the loss to UConn as the No. 2 seed in the East Regional two years ago and the crushing defeat at the hands of North Carolina State as the No. 1 seed in the East Regional last season — were a distant memory. “It’s a surreal feeling,” Arcidiacono said. A few lockers to his left, fellow senior Daniel Ochefu had an even bigger grin on his face and the championship net dangling from his neck. “I may never take this off,” Ochefu said. After blistering the nets at a 59 percent clip overall and 53 percent from 3-point range in the first three rounds of the NCAA Tournament, the Wildcats shot 40.4 percent (21-for-52) and 22.2 percent (4-for-18) against a Kansas defense determined to take away the 3-pointer. Yet Villanova still beat the No. 1 team in the land, something most pundits didn’t think possible. The Wildcats trailed by five points, 45-40, with 10 minutes, 50 seconds to play, and their leading scorer in the tournament, Kris Jenkins, on the bench with four fouls. Less than three minutes later, after back-to-back threes by Arcidiacono and Josh Hart, Villanova was up, 50-45, and on its way to the Final Four for the fifth time in program history and first since 2009. They did it by being tougher than the Jayhawks, defending as if their season depended on it, which it did, protecting the ball, making free throws down the stretch. Villanova came up with nearly every loose ball. The Wildcats had 11 steals, five by redshirt freshman Mikal Bridges. Two of his thefts came in the final 34 seconds as Villanova desperately clung to the lead. “We knew coming into the game that it was going to be a battle,” Bridges said. “It wasn’t going to be an easy game, and we just had to fight and scrap for 40 minutes.” Villanova swarmed Kansas at every turn and did not give the Jayhawks room to breathe, especially leading scorer Perry Ellis. The 6-8 senior came into the game averaging 23 points per game.

    Basketball Hall of Fame Names Twenty Point Guards to Watch List for 2021 Bob Cousy Award Starting Five Fan Voting Presented by Dell Technologies to go Live on Friday, November 6 Springfield, Mass. (Nov. 2, 2020) — The Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame announced today the 20 watch list candidates for the 2021 Bob Cousy Point Guard of the Year Award. Named after Class of 1971 Hall of Famer and former Boston Celtic and Holy Cross guard Bob Cousy, the annual honor now in its eighteenth year recognizes the top point guards in Division I men’s college basketball. A national committee of top college basketball personnel determined the watch list of 20 candidates. “Since 2004, the Hall of Fame has had the honor of bestowing the Bob Cousy Award on the best point guards in the collegiate game,” said John L. Doleva, President and CEO of the Basketball Hall of Fame. “The list is comprised of many outstanding student-athletes and we know the fans are very excited to see them take the floor. Starting Five Fan Voting presented by Dell Technologies will allow fans to support their favorite players throughout the season and eventually play a part in helping us to select our winner. We greatly appreciate the support of Dell Technologies, the fans, our selection committee and the namesake of the award, Mr. Bob Cousy.” Bob Cousy played for Holy Cross from 1946-1950 winning an NCAA Championship in 1947. He was named a Consensus First-Team All-American in 1950. His success continued at the professional level as a six-time NBA Champion (1957, 1959-1963), NBA Most Valuable Player (1957) and 13-time NBA All-Star (1951-63).
