Jack Gohlke and his teammates have a guaranteed spot in One Shining Moment this year and Cinderella montages for years to come.
PITTSBURGH — Greg Kampe’s eyebrows furrowed as the strange question was being posed to him Friday afternoon: Had ’s 68-year-old coach considered that, in guiding the 14th-seeded Golden Grizzlies to a massive upset over No. 3 seed in the first round of the NCAA Tournament the night before, he’d effectively just added a line to his future obituary? “Well, that is morbid,” he said with a laugh, “but it’s true. ‘He beat Kentucky.’ Wow, I didn’t think about that, but you’re right.
Everyone spontaneously began to serenade him to the tune of a famous State Farm commercial: “Like a good neighbor, Jack Gohlke’s there!” “I almost choked on my food,” Kampe said. “He’s up here right now,” teammate said, raising a hand above his head, “so we just gotta keep him down here with us. Just gotta bust him up a little bit to keep him humble. In our eyes, he’s not an insurance salesman, but we know that’s what it looks like to everybody else.
