Well, this tournament has been very fun to write about up to this point. But now, I’m forced to choose between Chauncey Billups and Rashaan Salaam and stake my case for one. Which means I’m actively rooting against the other. So, because the editor said I couldn’t recuse myself, here we are. And I believe that Rashaan Salaam should advance to the championship.
Number one, he has the most impressive hardware in the entire history of CU athletics. No other player has won a Heisman or equivalent player of the award in football or basketball. Salaam stands alone atop the mountain.
