A scene opens with Jacob Pullen and a little boy at the bowling alley. The boy is Jacob's little brother in the Big Brothers Big Sisters program at Manhattan, and he just got an A on a test thanks to Jake's mentoring, so they are celebrating. Jake's phone rings, and he answers it:
Jake: Hello?
Caller: Hi, is this Jacob Pullen?
Jake: Yeah, who's this?
Caller: The fear the beard man himself?
Jake: Yeah, what's it to you?
Caller: Hello, my name is Jamie Skeen.
Jake: Who's Jamie Skeen?
Jamie: I play for VCU.
Jake: Oh, yeah. Hey, man, congratulations on getting to the elite 8.
Jamie: Yeah, man, thanks. I was calling because our next opponent is KU. We've been watching film from your game with them, and I couldn't help but be impressed with the way you guys handled them. Can you give me any pointers on what we need to do to pull this off?
Jake: Listen, man. Those guys are good. Real good. But if you guys pull together as a team and play your hearts out, you can overcome. Just watch out for those Morris twins though. Those guys are real buttholes on the court. They're always elbowing people and getting cheap shots in. Just don't let them intimidate you.
Jamie: All right, man. Thanks! I'll let the guys know what you said.
Jake: No problem, man. Just remember what I said.
