Dick Vitale On UNC's Thrilling Win: "Booyah! Booyah! Booyah! Booyah! Booyah!"

On the day friends and family said goodbye to Stu Scott, Dick Vitale let the Booyahs fly after UNC's thrilling win over Louisville at home.

UNC and Louisville played a thriller in Chapel Hill today, and the Tar Heels came out on top after trailing for much of the game. The two teams traded baskets going down to the wire on ESPN and Dick Vitale was providing the color. After Louisville missed the last shot and the final buzzer sounded, Vitale was oddly quiet for a few seconds but then finally broke the silence by repeatedly yelling "Booyah!" as an homage to his colleague and former Tar Heel, Stuart Scott.

Scott passed away last Sunday, and friends and family gathered today in Raleigh for his funeral.
