Not sure anyone has talked about this but I think it is incredible. From this article about Poole... http://bleacherreport.com/articles/...oole-was-made-for-march-heroics-its-who-he-is

Great read, btw, but this is what made me laugh

A few moments before his fateful shot against Houston, the Cougars had appeared poised to seal the game. With a two-point lead, senior forward Devin Davis was preparing for a pair of free throws when his teammate, Rob Gray, locked eyes with Poole and asked Michigan's freshman where he was from. Poole replied, "Milwaukee."

"You're about to go back there," Gray told him.

Seconds later, Davis' free throws both clanked out, and Poole was splaying his legs and arching his arms, launching the game-winner and sending Gray back home.*
 
Kind of dumb really.

IF Michigan had lost, Jordan Poole would've went back to Ann Arbor, not Milwaukee.

Poor Manbun! Bye bye Manbun!
 
this is a great story.

granted, I'm not a fan of his team, but just from watching his antics during the game, Gray seemed like a pretty unlikable guy, even though the commentators went out of their way to portray him as some sort of great underdog story, and kept showing his little brother cheering for him.

I guess the real villain will always be exposed, and the real hero will always come through in the end.
