Villanova's trip to the White House: A Day in Review

On Tuesday, the Villanova Wildcats were invited to the White House to meet with President Obama, as is tradition for champions of sport in this country.

For starters, you can watch the President's remarks right here.

NOTE: Obama called Jay Wright "the George Clooney of coaches", which is the highest honor in all of the land.

Regardless of your feelings of the current President, we're at an interesting juncture with these visits to the White House. None of the three remaining candidates seem to be as big of a sports fan as the previous three Presidents, so these visits may very well go by the wayside.
