Beyond the Numbers: The Legacy of Billy Garrett Jr.

It's the type of finish no college basketball player would ever dream of.

Ideally, you would hope to hold up the Big East Tournament trophy and enjoy all of the championship fanfare that comes with achieving such a feat.

Instead, Billy Garrett Jr. and the DePaul Blue Demons were handed the finishing blow to their rough season. On Wednesday night, they were bounced out of the opening round of the Big East Tournament, falling at the feet of seventh-seeded Xavier.

With a 9-23 record, there will be no last dance later in March for the senior guard, or his teammates.
