Pat Behan's time as a high school basketball coach was cut short following his ALS diagnosis. But his passion for basketball remains stronger than ever as he battles the disease.

In his role for @Bucknell_MBB as special advisor to head coach John Griffin III, Behan continues to make a profound impact on the team by communicating with his eyes.
