i really thought DJ halfcourt shot was online and looked very promising live. soooooo close.



If that shot had gone in, I suspect it becomes one of the 3 or 4 most famous shots in NCAA basketball history. Laettner against Kentucky, NC State's definitely on purpose "alley oop" to beat Houston, Villanova's buzzer beater vs. UNC in the final.

But a half-court game winner would be pretty rare. Especially for an underdog against a blue blood.


Absolutely. We would have been the lowest seed in Elite 8 history as well, I believe. Would be a truly ironic moment for decades.


Yep. We were a 13 that year. As of 2012 the highest seeded elite 8 was Missouri as a 12 in 2002. That was tied by Oregon St in 2021 and then of course blown away by St Peter's last year as a 15.

Princeton could tie it this year.

The year Butler lost to Duke in the national championship, Butler's men's basketball budget was nearly identical to Ohio's. It can be done.


Had we been able to retain John Groce after the two tournament wins in 2012 who knows? But now with NIL and transfers being immediately eligible it's highly unlikely.
