he did the post game interview on BTN and as he ran off the floor he got the cheers from the crowd. Grinning from ear to ear he waved to them. Great moment for him.
The first time I met Dre he was walking into Ubben last summer and I was talking to one of the coaches and he walked up and said, 'Hello. Very nice to meet you'. Totally unprompted. Just a big ole grin and a great handshake. The coach introduced him and we spoke for a minute and he went and got dressed for a workout. So polite and so thankful.
Talked to him 1 on 1 in New York and he talked about how tall everyone is in the Big Ten. He is just so real.
Just a special kid that I have really enjoyed covering this season. Thought I would share.
