PROVIDENCE — It's impossible for Rodney Bullock to forget his greatest basketball memory.

As he walks into Providence College's locker room every day at Alumni Hall, Bullock passes TV screens flashing images of memorable Friar highlights. In between Ernie D's behind-the-back passes, Billy Donovan's 3-pointers and Michael Smith's rebounds, there is Bullock putting in a layup with 1.5 seconds remaining last March to beat Southern California, 70-69. The NCAA Tournament win was a first in Ed Cooley's career and first for the Friars in 19 years.

"Five out of 10 times I walk through that hallway and I see that play," Bullock says.
