"That was unbelievable," Michael Bogut said of the entire experience.
Along with "surreal" and "awesome," unbelievable was one of the words Jackson used to describe his senior season in which the 15th-ranked Utes went 25-4, undefeated at home and an MWC record 13-1 in league play. He scored 10 points and dished out seven assists in his last home hurrah.
"It couldn't have been a better season," said the senior, who didn't play his junior year because of Majerus. "I couldn't have scripted a better ending."
Michael Bogut just hopes the real ending isn't too soon. He's staying in America as long as the Utes are still playing in the NCAA tournament.
"Let's hope," he said, "we're here until the end."
Ute fans, who've already lost Alex Smith and Urban Meyer earlier than they would have hoped, would rather have one more year.
