Paul Harris Likes to Play Basketball

No, really, ESPN has proof and everything.

Here's some choice footage from the last 2 'Cuse blowout wins over Cincy & Rutgers



Dude also likes popcorn.....mid-game.



You know who doesn't appreciate Paul Harris?

One guess.

"And for just one example of this, there was the Orange's two-on-none fast break in the first 70 seconds following the intermission during which Jonny Flynn, who could have simply laid the ball in, tossed it high off the glass so that the trailing Paul Harris could corral the thing and slam it home.

The game had already evolved into a carnival. Flynn and Harris set the mood early in the second half, when Flynn - coasting on a fast break - flipped the ball off the backboard for Harris, who slammed it.

"I just said it once - I said 'Off the glass,' " Harris said. "He looked. He shot it off the glass."

Boeheim was not as amused.

Boeheim, who spent a fair portion of the night shaking his head, watched this in a mini-state of disbelief and then muttered, "That's equine fertilizer" -- or something to that effect -- as his giddy athletes hopped to the bench.



True Niagara Falls.
