For a brief moment, it felt like college basketball had turned back the clock to the 1980’s. On Wednesday, Big East icons Chris Mullin and Patrick Ewing once again took to the Madison Square Garden floor, only this time as coaches of their respective alma maters.
“It’s great to be back here,” Ewing said at media day this Wednesday that was held at Madison Square Garden. “[MSG] is one of the places I consider my home. I spent fifteen years of my life playing here giving my blood sweat and tears. Battling against [Mullin]. Number in the rafters.
