If you thought the court storm on Bob King Court was good after the University of New Mexico men’s basketball team upset No. 22 Wyoming last week, that was just the start of the celebration.
Moments later, after the Lobos made their way up the ramp and were able to begin catching their collective breath, first-year coach Richard Pitino gave the usual postgame congratulations with the team circled around in the locker room. Right before he was done highlighting which players stepped up in big moments in the game and congratulating them on their work, he threw in one more non-game related comment.
