    Trying to soak up all of the Jimmy V I can. 2024 final four NC State men’s and women’s teams brought me here. What a leader we have in the eternal words of the great Jimmy V.

    Hearing Jimmy V speak, he could've been a public speaker! God, family & NC State, this man did more than coach basketball,, he molded men! Three things you should do everyday- Laugh, Cry, & think. We miss you so much coach, & your legacy has saved thousands! God bless you sir

      His last speech as he was dying was very inspirational...don't give up, don't ever give up. RIP.

    It shows the loyalty of father and son. His story is about how the support of his dad motivated him.

    there are two emotions that one feels when he hears the truth, not just truth but real down to the universe truth and when you hear these real truths you either laugh or you cry. and man I tell you what I balled my eyes out. "believing in you" is really the best gift anyone can give you and even more so from a parent I don't have much of a relationship with my father but everything this man spoke to reminded me of my mother. I was fortunate to have one parent one who showed me these truths everyday 7 days a week. I feel sorry for this out there who never had a parent who truly believe in them. for if there is one certainty in life its that good parents create good women and men.

    My compassion to the people who suffer while watching this because you didn't have supportive or even abusive and narcissistic mum, dad or both. It feels like a void and it feels unfair when people have it better. But know at least you're not alone.

      When he had chemo while working at ESPN, he said he didn't lose his hair because his contract said there supposed to be only one bald man doing college basketball at the network.

    Jim this is a motivational speech. It's not a eulogy or tribute to your father I'm sorry, It says more about your life than your dads. My father dies yesterday and I wen ton the internet for example speeches. This sounds like a sales add. I'm sorry.
