I was in this chaos this morning but thanks to someone special, found a shortcut, so I randomly grabbed this lady beside me in line and said I’ve got a way through this. She didn’t know my name and I didn’t know her’s but she blindly trusted me. Got her through security in 10 minutes instead of 2 hours, she introduced herself and never thought I’d see her again. I walk on my plane to Norfolk late and I’m sitting RIGHT BESIDE HER. A random person in a sea of people in line, out of hundreds of flights and a hundred plus passengers on a plane. How cool is that?

Been trying to tell you. If you don’t know, you better ask someone. He is him

[OptaSTATS @OptaSTATS]

Darius Acuff Jr. of @RazorbackMBB is the only player to have 60+ points, 10+ assists & 5 or fewer turnovers over any 2-game span in the NCAA Tournament (since assists became official in 1983-84).

He did it in his first 2 tourney games as a freshman.
