Coach Prosser led both schools to the NCAA Tournament, and coached NBA standouts David West, James Posey and Chris Paul.
The game is great for several reasons: One, Coach Prosser was a great guy and it is a nice way to honor the memory of a coach we lost way too soon. Two, Xavier is on the verge of becoming the next Gonzaga; the "small Jesuit school that always wins, doesn't play in a "major" conference, but is still a cool place to go because I will always win, be on TV and have a shot at the NBA." In order to make that dream come to frution, you need games like this on the schedule.
Good news for Wake. Good news for X. Good news for hoops fans. Thanks Coach Prosser.
