Daily News | ‘He was himself’: Jay Wright shines in his CBS debut at a familiar place
It was a little reminder that within those particular walls, Wright will always be a rock star. When’s the last time you heard a PA announcer announce a broadcaster and the whole place rises to its feet?
McCarthy credited Lappas, Wright’s Villanova’s predecessor, for understanding how to make the three-person team work. McCarthy would call the action. Lappas would add a point, throwing a “Jay” into the sentence, to make it clear the new guy should add something. Something like: “I think Jay they’re both trying to find themselves defensively.”
After an early rebound bounded over the head of Villanova star freshman Cam Whitmore, Penn junior forward Max Martz grabbing it, you might have thought bad luck for ‘Nova, a simple long rebound, since Whitmore had a body on Martz. “Cam Whitmore with a great skip pass across the floor,” Wright had said about an earlier play. “For a freshman that’s an outstanding play.”“I understand what they did against us, but I would never know how to teach it,” Wright said of watching Donahue’s game plan being implemented. “So to be at that practice, and watch him break it down, it was fascinating.”
