Last year the congradulations went to the folks at Dean Smith's North
Carolina - now they go the Jimmy at N.C. State.  I don't know much about
North Carolina, but, man, do they play basketball in that state.

It has been pointed out that in 6 of the last 9 NCAA championships a team
from the Raleigh/Durham/Chapel Hill area (about a 12 mile radius) has
been in the final game.  We are understandably proud of the quality of
basketball played in this area and in the Atlantic Coast Conference
overall.  The N.C. State story is truly amazing...I doubt we'll see its
like again for a long while.  If you had told me that an unranked team
would meet, and beat, four teams that had at one time or another been ranked
#1 in the polls -- one of them twice! -- on its way to a national
championship I would have tried to sell you a couple of bridges than I own.
