Great point. I'll always have a pain in my heart when I see or hear Steve's name. Still doesn't seem real when I look at pictures from last year like the A-10 Championship celebration with everyone swarming big Steve. Makes you do a double take that he's gone.
What is truly transcending is that a player of Kostas pedigree will likely finally "open the door" for other top tier national recruits to look at Dayton should this young man be drafted into the NBA in a few years. That is what excites me most. Watching him playing the way he does at only 17, with a very good chance of a few more inches to his frame and added muscle, top notch coaching by Archie and national University exposure, likely brings us up another notch. Perhaps Steve has pulled a few strings for us from above?
