So basically the only team to be champs for two straight years while only winning one national championship. Kind of a weird but interesting historical fact now.Wittenburg to Charles....and I'm a UVA alum.
Last year was pretty cool too. Still defending champs! WAHOOOWA.
This. All of this.
11 y/o me was so stunned and sad. Phi Slamma JammaWittenburg to Charles....
Don't even have to think about it. Their first in '99. They had been so close to the Final Four so many times and to finally make it. I was never more nervous watching a game than I was than the Elite 8 game against Gonzaga. And then to go in there and beat the team were saying was one of the best of all time just icing on the. And of course this all before the Sox in 2004 so it was quite the ride.Dan, of the four UConn men's titles, which one was your favorite?
He also kept the team in it in the first half.My favorite image of March Madness, and @Dan Murfman you might agree, is Ricky Moore at the end of the '99 title game when he was snarling after getting a key defensive stop. He was the heart and soul of that team moreso than Khalid, Rip, or Jake. Man I'm going to miss this.
