NCAA tourney breakout star Shaheen Holloway got some unexpected support during his introduction press conference at Seton Hall University -- and the moment will hit you right in the feels.
who many experts believe will be the first pick in the NBA Draft in a few months ... but the Peacocks held the stud guard to just 9 points, forcing 6 turnovers.
Unfortunately for Sha and the players, the magic ran out against UNC ... and St. Peters was sent home. However, it was one of the most improbable and inspiring runs in sports history ... so when Holloway was hired by his alma mater, Seton Hall -- his dream job -- the players he just led clearly wanted to show their leader support.
Back in the late '90s, Holloway was a star at SHU. He spent 4 seasons with the Pirates where he averaged 14 points, 6 assists, and 4 rebounds., who was at the helm for 12 seasons and led SH to 5 tourney appearances . Before getting hired as the head guy in Jersey City, Sha was an assistant coach under Willard. He only left when the opportunity to become a head coach became a reality.Now he's there ... and the Seton Hall faithful hope he brought some of that March magic to the campus in South Orange.
