Giving It Up For Jorts


Sometimes the interwebz really becomes an echo chamber, but I can't let Senior Day 2011 pass without a few words of tribute directed towards Josh "Jorts" Harrellson.

By now we all know the stories-- dare I say legends?-- of Josh being confined to bathroom stalls, having his Twitter account ceased and desisted, his dancing at Midnight Madness, and of course his absolute torching of the dirty Cards at the Yum! Center this season.

And there's no debate about how far Josh has come during his time on campus, going from a bit of an afterthought to a truly vital component as a senior starter.

So I will just add this: Josh seems to me like a guy who is enjoying himself, squeezing every bit of performance that he can from the talent that God gave him. And anybody that sticks it out as a Wildcat, and gives his very best for the program, deserves mad respect and whatever additional recognition or notoriety that comes with it.

So I say a big thanks to Josh, for all of the sweat, for all of the hard work, and here's wishing you the absolute best of luck in the future.
