Congrats IT, you richly deserve it.

SMU BB has only produced 4 legends: Krebs, Phillips, IT & Nic.

I agree this was overdue but could not happen until Phillips was recognized. That took way too long. Glad the followed quickly with Ira.

Wish Ira were getting the award when the basketball program was hot and not when it is in a tailspin.

Yes. It would have been bedlam on the night of the presentation. Too late for that.
