What a shot by Newby. That was one of the greatest shots under pressure ever. A no name too.

Ali hit his shot from almost exactly the same spot!

History repeats itself in 2010. Here in Tampa, we had a local sportscaster named Chris Thomas refer to doing anything well as having "Newbyed it" for several years afterwards.

Back in the day, I remember when Western IL.University got invited to play in the Christmas Classic in Oklahoma City, and they defeated the University of Oklahoma, on Joe Dykstra's free throws. I LOVE it. I Love to watch Butler play. I also remember when the Mo.Valley Confrence was the basketball KING.Oh so sad now.that they are considered " Mid -Majors " and do not get the respect they so richly deserve.
