As I paraded around my living room after Jordan Poole sank a 30-foot three-pointer to send the Michigan Wolverines to the Sweet Sixteen, I came to a quick realization: This win, the one I celebrated as if I myself had hit the shot, will be one of my greatest sports memories for as long as I live.
For all the right reasons, obviously.
The Wolverines march to their second consecutive Sweet Sixteen when they really shouldn’t have. Houston point guard Rob Gray responded to a quiet first half with a second half that seemed to set the upset in stone.
