Princeton and Furman have enjoyed quasi-celebrity status that comes with the territory in the hours since.
Princeton coach: "It will be even better if you make the Sweet 16" Furman coach Bob Richey: "I woke up [Friday] morning just sure I wasn't at Disney and dreaming all of this did happen, and we were a part of it" Princeton coach says he got between 400 and 500 text messages, all conveying congratulatory messages.
Furman players received messages from family, friends and classmates who were watching from the school's campus.
Players have re-watched the clip of the game-deciding sequence.
"It's been at least 50 times I've watched that specific clip," guard JP Pegues said.
Furman will play San Diego State in Saturday's second-round game.
