We've heard the story of Dick Gregory, UK fan who hurt his back while keeping his wife safe at Rupp Arena, all through the year.  Well, even though it was a big headline for a while, getting picked up nationally by the likes of CBS' Gregg Doyel, Coach Cal went out of his way to remember this super-fan even after the everyone had already heard the story.  Because for Cal it's not about headlines (even though we'll give them to him), it's about remembering the "crazy" people that cheer for you regardless of circumstance.

Glad to see Mr. Gregory's still wearing Blue.
