college basketball Hall of Fame 2010

Former Duke star Christian Laettner is headed to the college basketball Hall of Fame class of 2010. When the news broke yesterday, I was reminded of my #1 Duke memory, so I am posting the video of the end the Duke - Kentucky game below (from the 1992 eastern regional.)
With 2.1 seconds remaining in overtime, Duke trailed 103-102. Grant Hill threw a pass the length of the court to Christian Laettner, who dribbled once, turned, and hit a jumper as time expired for the 104-103 win. Video by CBS SportsLine and CSTV.
Just to remind you all that March Madness is coming soon - and I don't mean the time when everyone is in a hurry to file their taxes with the IRS - Duke ends the season at home on Sunday, March 7th, against North Carolina. The following week ends with the ACC tournament and the Dukies are working toward that tournament championship. If you like college basketball, this is for you....
